By: Markly Casugbo

Carlos Yulo once again proved that he is a Philippine gymnastics hero as he won his third consecutive Southeast Asian Games gold medal in the men’s all-around event held in Phnom Penh.

Despite only having two weeks to prepare, Yulo dominated in his favorite apparatuses, the vault and parallel bars, and was unmatched in the floor exercise.

Yulo scored 15.000 in the vault and

14.950 in the parallel bars, and wowed the judges and the crowd with his magnificent routine in the floor exercise with 14.350 points. He finished with a total of 84.000, beating the silver and bronze medalists from Vietnam by a wide margin.

Yulo also led the men’s team to a silver finish, duplicating their performance from last year. He will compete again on May 16 in the finals of the individual apparatuses, and is likely to compete in the vault and parallel bars.

Yulo’s success is a testament to his hard work and dedication to the sport, and he continues to be an inspiration to aspiring gymnasts everywhere.
