rothers Carlos and Karl Eldrew Yulo beef up the eight-man cast in the men’s floor exercise final of the 13th Senior Artistic Gymnastics Asian Championships in Zunyi, China.

It is the first time both brothers suited up for the national team in this Asian Championships, which serves as a qualifier for the 20th Asian Games in Nagoya, Japan from 19 September to 4 October.

Carlos was a cut above the rest in his pet floor exercise, where he registered 14.430 points while Eldrew finished eighth with 13.600.

Gymnastics Association of the Philippines (GAP) president Cynthia Carrion told DAILY TRIBUNE that she has high hopes both brothers will end up with a medal around their necks.

Yeah, I’m sure because I got all the scores of all the others on the floor. Carlos will win a medal there,” Carrion said.

“I’m hoping he (Eldrew) will. I’m hoping.”

Getting the gold medal will be easier said than done as Tokyo Olympics gold medalist Tanigawa Wataru of Japan will be vying for the title as well as teammate Tsukiyama Shoma.

Yang Haonan and Li Hongyan will likewise vie for the gold after powering China to a gold medal in the team all-around.

Dmitry Patanin of Kazakhstan and Ryu Sunghyun of South Korea complete the roster.
