Two-time Olympic gold medalist Carlos Yulo visited GMA Network afternoon on August 20, 2024.

He was welcomed by network executives and employees led by President and Chief Executive Officer, Gilberto R. Duavit, Jr.

Yulo will answer questions in the GMA Integrated News Interviews, which will be aired on 24 Oras.

His visit to GMA Network came days after a welcome ceremony in Malacañang, which was led by no less than President Ferdinand Marcos, Jr. and the rest of the first family, and a heroes parade in the streets of Manila.

Yulo, 24, bagged two gold medals in men’s artistic gymnastics to conclude a historic stint in the Paris Summer Games.

Yulo’s first gold medal was in floor exercise. In doing so, he secured the country’s only second gold in Olympic history, and became the first ever male athlete from the Philippines to claim the top spot in an Olympic event.

He then took home another gold medal after an impressive showcase in the vault event a day later. 

Yulo’s second gold made him the first and only Filipino to be a two-time Olympic champion.

The other executives who welcomed Yulo to GMA Network were Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer Felipe S. Yalong; GMA Network Senior Vice President for Programming, Talent Management, Worldwide, and Support Group and President and CEO of GMA Films, Atty. Annette Gozon-Valdes; GMA Network Senior Vice President for Integrated News, Regional TV, and Synergy Oliver Victor B. Amoroso; and GMA Network First Vice President of Sparkle GMA Artist Center and Talent Development and Management, Joy C. Marcelo.
