HANGZHOU, China—Taolu wushu specialist Jones Inso stopped the bleeding for a Team Philippines desperately in need of victories to celebrate
The 26-year-old native of La Trinidad, Benguet ended the Filipinos’ string of losses in many fronts with his taijiquan-taijijian all-around performance that proved worthy of a bronze.
“I was diligent with my training. I went back on my past performances ko and today, we got the bronze,’’ said Inso, whose effort netted the Philippines’ second bronze medal to go with that of taekwondo jin Patrick King Perez’s medal on Sunday in the men’s individual poomsae. “It was a challenge to perform at first. I was watching my opponents and I was nervous, but I also enjoyed myself,’’ said Inso, who will next see action in the World Combat Games and the World Wushu Championships.
Eala took only 39 minutes to bring down the 32-year-old Khan and advance to the next round either against Kazakhstan’s Aruzhan Sagandykova or India’s Rutuja Bhosale.
