After narrowly missing out on a podium finish as he placed fourth in the artistic gymnastics men’s vault final at the Tokyo Olympics at the Ariake Gymnastics Center on Monday, August 2, Pinoy Olympian Carlos Yulo showed how grateful he was for being given the opportunity to represent the country in his latest social media post.

He wrote, “Gusto ko lang mag pasalamat sa Panginoon sa mga biyaya na pinagkaloob sa akin. Nag papasalamat din ako sa pamilya ko na patuloy na pag suporta sa akin. Nag papasalamat din ako sa team ko, dahil sa kanila natungtong ko yung pangarap ko na makapag laro sa Olympics. Hindi naging madali yung daang tinahak namin, pero sulit lahat ng pagod at iyak. Maraming salamat din po sa mga taong nag dasal at sumuporta sa amin”.
