JOB WELL DONE IN PARIS
August 12, 2024
|The Philippine Star
Au revoir! À la prochaine! Team Philippines bade goodbye to the 2024 Olympics - the Paris Games which were days of days and moments of moments for Philippine sports with a solid 2-0-2 gold-silver-bronze haul from a P100-million war chest from the government.
Gymnastics double-gold winner Carlos Yulo and boxing bronze winner Aira Villegas were to lead the makeup of the Philippine team in the closing parade at Stade de France Sunday night.
It's a grand celebration for humanity, for the whole world and for our island nation of 120 million in the Pacific in reaching new heights on its very centennial year of participation in the quadrennial Games. It turned out a golden 10th decade in the greatest show on earth.
Nesthy Petecio, Carlo Paalam, Hergie Bacyadan, Eumir Marcial, Lauren Hoffman, John Ceniza, Elreen Ann Ando and Vanessa Sarno were also listed to represent Team Philippines in the closing rites after a historic salvo propelling the country to No. 35 in the medal table.
China (39-27-24) and the USA (38-42-42) finished in a dead heat, with Australia (18-18-14), Japan (18-12-13) and host France (16-24-22) comprising the Top 5.
The Philippines posted its strongest show in the medal race in 56 long years - No. 7 among Asian countries behind China, Japan, Korea, Uzbekistan, Iran and Chinese Taipei.

Trapped
