World No. 2 pole vaulter Ernest John “EJ” Obiena, accompanied by Philippine Athletics Track and Field Association President Terry Capistrano, was the first Filipino to qualify for Paris Olympics after reaching the standard 5.82 meters last July 2 in Bauhaus Galan Diamond League in Sweden.
Gymnasts Carlos Yulo and Aleah Finnegan were also declared eligible for Olympic berths in Antwerp, Belgium World Championships also last week prior to Marcial’s successful run in the final but lost to his Chinese opponent Tuohetaerbieke Tanglatihan through a controversial 2-3 split decision. Tokyo Olympics gold medalist Hidilyn Diaz-Naranjo, according to Tolentino, is still adjusting to her new weight category from women’s 55 kg to 59 kg and needs more time to adapt.
