The Philippines' first-ever Olympic gold medalist Hidilyn Diaz is one with the nation in rallying behind her fellow national athletes set to see action in the 2024 Paris Olympics starting on Saturday. Diaz, who delivered a record-breaking performance in the 2021 Tokyo Games en route to a rare gold medal in the weightlifting tournament, threw her support and prayer to the 22-man delegation, who are also marking the country's centennial appearance in the Summer Games.
In her debut that year in Beijing, Diaz finished 11th but she registered a DNF in the following edition in the 2012 London Games. Diaz then claimed the silver in 2016 in Brazil, which set the stage for a breakthrough golden medal run in 2021 in Tokyo, where she set an Olympic record total lift of 224 kilograms. And Diaz wants to see more Filipinos follow in her footsteps.
