Working Christmas for Yulo
MANILA, Philippines — Gymnast Caloy Yulo will spend the holidays continuing his training in a gym abroad, underscoring his commitment and dedication to the pursuit of glory in the Olympics in Tokyo, Japan next year.
“This is the most focused he should be to win the gold medal in the Olympics,” Gymnastics Association of the Philippines president Cynthia Carrion-Norton told The STAR yesterday.
Carrion-Norton said Yulo is now in the early stage of his preparation towards Tokyo where he hopes to make a breakthrough.
“We have seven more months of focused training,” she said.
Yulo is now No. 1 in floor exercise world rankings and is aiming to be No. 2 in vault.
And the Leveriza, Manila native seems to be peaking at the right time, considering a pair of bronze medals in floor exercise and vault in the 74th All-Japan Championships a week ago.
It was an improvement from a mere bronze medal effort in the 74th All-Japan Championships last September.
