Following the historic win of two gold medals by Carlos Yulo in the 2024 Paris Olympics, Megaworld is upgrading its reward for the Filipino gymnast. He will receive a bigger three-bedroom unit in one of its premier residential properties inside the 50-hectare McKinley Hill plus a special cash bonus because of his exceptional achievement.
Philippines’ First
Last time, Hidilyn Diaz made history when she won the Philippines’ first gold in the 2020 Olympics. She also received a fully furnished condo from Megaworld. And now, Carlos Yulo is the first Filipino athlete to win two gold medals! He is coming home a hero!
The condominium unit will be designed and fully furnished with appliances, furniture, and fixtures. The unit also features two balconies, a separate maid’s room, and a parking slot with a total value of P32-million.
Aside from the fully-furnished condo unit, Megaworld will also give a cash bonus of P3 million to Yulo–a special reward for ‘being the first Filipino athlete to get two gold Olympic medals.’
“Since this is a very significant milestone in the history of Philippine sports to have two gold Olympic medals during our 100th year of participation as a country in the Olympics, which also coincides with our company’s 35th anniversary this year, we are boosting our reward for Carlos Yulo now totaling to P35-million. He truly deserves this and we will always be proud of him for taking Filipino excellence to the next level,” says Lourdes Gutierrez-Alfonso, president, Megaworld.
Last August 1, Megaworld announced that it is rewarding ‘each Filipino athlete that gets a gold medal in the Olympics’ with a two-bedroom fully-furnished condominium unit amounting to P24-million.
