00:00Good news naman po sa sports!
00:02Muling pinatunayan ng Filipino Olympia na si EJ Obiena na siya pa rin ang hari ng pole vault sa Asia.
00:09Yan po ay matapos niyang makamit ang three-peat victory sa 2025 Asian Athletics Championship na ginanap sa South Korea.
00:18Pero bukod sa kanyang bagong tagumpay, ipinagbubunyi rin ni EJ ang panalo ng kanyang ama sa Taiwan.
00:25Nakatutok si JP Soriano.
00:30Na-i-uwi ng Filipino Olympia na si EJ Obiena ang gold medal sa 2025 Asian Athletics Championship sa Gumi, South Korea.
00:41Matapos niyang maklear ang 5.77 meter sa isang jump-off kalaban ang pole vaulter mula sa China.
00:49Three-peat champion na si Obiena matapos niyang i-dominate ang Asian Athletics Championship pole vaulting noong 2019 at 2023.
00:57Ang hindi nga raw alam ng marami, masama pa ang pakiramdam ni EJ noong araw ng kompetisyon.
01:03May sore throat daw siya pero hindi pwedeng uminom ng kahit anong uri ng gamot dahil baka maging paglabag ito sa anti-doping rule violations.
01:11Kwento ni EJ, sinunod lang niya ang instructions ng kanyang coach sa magiging strategy sa kompetisyon.
01:17Do the jump-off, that doesn't mean that you're gonna win. That means you could lose the gold as well, which we both already have.
01:25So yeah, it's the toughest one out there and yeah, it's still good I'd say. I'm happy to retain it three consecutive times.
01:37Pagkatapos magkampiyon, lumipad agad pa Europe si EJ upang maghanda at sumabak sa iba't-ibang international pole vault competitions.
01:45Ang tagumpay ni EJ nangyari isang linggo lang matapos manalo rin ng gintong medalya sa World Masters Games sa Taipei, Taiwan,
01:54ang kanyang amang si Emerson.
01:56Na clear niya ang 3.60 meters sa pole vault men's 60 plus event.
02:01My dad still got it. I'm still in awe in a way. It's like I can't understand how this guy at the age of 61 now, yeah, turning 61, can still do what he does.
02:19And I don't know, I'm out of words with that.
02:26Nang makakwentuhan ko ang ama ni EJ nang suportahan ng anak niya sa 2024 Paris Olympics,
02:32ikinuwento niya kung paano raw sa batang edad ay ginagaya na siya ni EJ sa pagpa-pole vault.
02:38Hindi man nakakuha ng medalya habang buhay daw din ang ipagmamalaki ang tagumpay ng anak.
02:44We're still very proud of him. Lumaban siya eh. Binigay niya lahat. Pinaganda niya talaga maigi yan.
02:52Ngayon, si EJ naman ang nagpaabot ng pagbati sa ama.
02:56Huge congratulations to him, you know, keeping his body in shape. It's such a long time. It's incredible. It really is incredible.
03:06Sa ngayon, kasama sa plano ni EJ at ng kanyang team ang sumali sa 2028 Los Angeles Olympics.
03:12Pero ang paghahanda raw dito, one step at a time. One competition at a time.
03:17But the good thing about it is you push yourself to the best of your abilities.
03:21And with that, I'm with everyone. I hope that the time would come where I could win.
03:28And I just don't know when that would be.
03:31I don't even know if that's like a certainty.
03:35That's something that, you know, I definitely aim for.
03:39That's something that we strive. That's something that, you know, we still consider a reality.
03:45Para sa GMA Integrated News, JP Soriano, nakatutok 24 oras.
