Carlos Yulo was admittedly surprised to have qualified for the finals of the vault apparatus in men's artistic gymnastics, a result overshadowed by his disappointing performance in his pet event, the floor exercise.
He scored only 13.566, good for just 44th and well off the Top 8 during Saturday's qualifiers at the Ariake Gymnastics Center. The score was enough to earn him a spot in the finals, set for August 2. That will now be Yulo's focus as he looks to salvage his campaign in the Summer Games. Yulo has not reached the finals of the vault in any major tournament until now, but he promises to make the most of the opportunity."Malabo po. Marami pong magaling," he admitted.
Clear your mind of all the pressures from all sides. Just do your best.
Whatever the outcome, may Carlos comes out stronger. After all, he is still a Worldwide Champion.
