PARIS: It was a Cinderella story that somehow turned into a tawdry telenovela. Over two days last week, 24-year-old Filipino gymnast Carlos Yulo took the top spot in the floor exercise and vault events at the Paris Olympic Games.
It was a historic achievement: Two Olympic gold medals that added to the first that the Philippines – after a 97-year wait – clinched at the Tokyo 2020 Olympics, courtesy of weightlifter Hidilyn Diaz.
