Team Philippines Carlos Yulo was awarded a new home, money, medical care, and even a lifetime supply of ramen. The 24-year-old won the men’s floor event with a score of 15.000 on Saturday (August 3). The gymnast’s victory marked the first time a Filipino male climbed the podium.

Hidilyn Diaz was the first Filipino athlete to earn a gold medal for the country in the Tokyo Games.

After taking home the gold medal for the men’s floor event, Carlos stunned his nation again at the 2024 Paris Olympic Games.

The next day, the athlete won his second gold medal after competing at the men’s vault final as he was the only athlete to surpass the 15-point mark, The New York Post reported on Tuesday (August 6).

And with his two Olympic gold medals, tripling the Philippines’ medal count in the span of just two days in 100 years of the country’s participation, Carlos was rewarded with plenty of astonishing perks.

Apart from a financial windfall worth tens of millions of Philippine pesos from both the local government and private firms, the athlete, endearingly referred to as “Caloy,” was also promised a condo unit worth an estimated $414,000, Larry Brown Sports reported on Monday (August 5).

The condo was initially a two-bedroom unit, but it got upgraded to three bedrooms when Carlos won a second medal, as per Larry Brown Sports.
