Philippine Olympians continue to receive recognitions days after the recently-concluded 2024 Paris Olympics.

Gymnasts Aleah Finnegan and Emma Malabuyo visited the House of Representatives on Wednesday as the two Olympians received a copy of a resolution recognizing the athletes who competed in the Paris Games.

Aside from the two, golfer Dottie Ardina also had a courtesy call in the Senate on Tuesday as she was given a certificate of recognition.

Ardina was also welcomed by Makati City Mayor Abby Binay where she feted the golfer's role in inspiring up and coming golfers.

Aside from the recognitions made by the members of the legislative branch, Olympic boxers were also welcomed warmly in their respective home towns.
