World artistic gymnastics champ Carlos Yulo back in Philippines


Gymnast Carlos Edriel Yulo on Tuesday returned home after bagging the gold at the 2019 World Artistic Gymnastics Championships in Germany.

A video by Ralph Obina of Super Radyo dzBB shows Yulo proudly holding his gold medal in front of the media.

On Saturday, the 19-year-old became the first Filipino to bring home the men’s floor title.

Yulo won by a 0.1-point margin against Artem Dolgopyat of Israel.

China’s Xiao Ruoteng meanwhile took home the bronze medal.

Yulo’s victory is a significant improvement from his third-place finish at the same competition last year. —Julia Mari Ornedo/NB, GMA News
