World Championship medalists Carlos Yulo and EJ Obiena, along with history maker Philippine women’s football team will be the recipient of Major Awards in next month’s San Miguel Corporation-Philippine Sportswriters Association Awards Night at the grand ballroom of the Diamond Hotel.
And the Filipinas? They just punched a first ever ticket to the FIFA Women’s World Cup following their third place finish in the AFC Women’s Asian Cup under coach Alen Stajcic. In the mix with Yulo, Obiena, and Filipinas are boxer Carlo Paalam, jui-jitsu bets Meggie Ochoa and Kimberly Anne Custodio, karateka Junna Tsukii, pool players Rubilen Amit, Carlo Biado, and Johann Chua, weightlifter Vanessa Sarno, the volleyball duo of Jovelyn Gonzaga and Sisi Rondina, Esports organization Blacklist International, jockey Jessie Guca, and champion horse Boss Emong.
Aside from his World Championship stint, Yulo, 22 also won three gold medals in the 9th Artistic Gymnastics Championships in Doha, Qatar, following his first place finishes in the vault, parallel bars, and floor exercise, while adding a silver in the all-around. The feat enabled him to earn an outright berth in the World Artistic Gymnastics.
