PAKIUSAP ng Gymnastics Association of the Philippines (GAP) President na si Cynthia Carrion, sana raw ay huwag nang gamitin ng media ang palayaw ng alaga niyang si Carlos Yulo na “Caloy.”
Kasama ng 2-time Olympic gold medalist at champion Pinoy gymnast si Cynthia nang humarap siya sa press kamakailan para tanggapin ang P5 million cash reward mula sa online gaming company na Arena Plus.
Simulang kuwento ni Cynthia, nag-joke raw si Manny V. Pangilinan na kering-keri niyang isali si Carlos sa isang basketball team, dahil napakataas nitong tumalon.

“You jump so high, you can be my basketball player. You can jump and shoot all the time,” pagbabahagi ni Cynthia.

Ang naging sagot daw ni Carlos kay MVP na isa sa mga biggest sponsor ng mga basketball league sa bansa, “He said no, I don’t want to be a basketball player.”
Napansin naman ni Cynthia na halos lahat ng nagtatanong kay Carlos sa mediacon ay “Caloy” ang tawag sa Olympian golden boy.
Kaya naman ang request ni Cynthia, sana raw ay Carlos na lang ang itawag sa binata dahil. “He’s also known internationally. That’s why I am always insisting for him to be called Carlos, because they know him as Carlos, not Caloy.

“And he’s known internationally, and when we’re abroad, it’s not only the Filipinos that want pictures with him, even the athletes,” paliwanag ni Cynthia.
Sabi pa niya, totoong sikat na sikat na si Carlos kaya madalas ay nagiging cause ito ng delay sa kanyang training.
“He’s very busy with all the athletes taking photos. It’s hard for him to train. I said, ‘Carlos, you have to train already,’” esplika niya.

Samantala, nangano rin siya bilang presidente ng GAP na gagawin niya ang lahat para mas bumongga pa ang career ni Carlos sa gymnastics. Bubuo rin sila ng pambatong team very soon.
“He will be leading the team. The team is composed of four athletes and one reserve. So we really have to train these other three, so we can win as a team,” ani Cynthia.
Nagpasalamat din si Cynthia sa kongreso sa pondo para makahanap ng mga bagong atletang makakasama ni Carlos, “The congress, the Speaker of the House gave us some funding for this because we have to have coaches for them.”
“Carlos said, ‘I don’t wanna charge them.’ Because a lot of them come from the poor regions, and even from different regions they come to train in our grassroots. We have a special place for them to train,” dagdag niya.
Nangako rin siya na 100% ang suporta ng GAP sa pangarap nitong magwagi sa all-around gymnastics competition, na mas mahirap daw kesa sa floor exercise at vault competitions.
“And he wants to win the gold medal for all-around. When he says all-around, that means the six apparatus and that is very-very difficult. So he’ll be training very hard.”
“And we have big plans to get a lot of coaches from other places. And we’re going to be sending him to a lot of training camps all over, in England, in Korea, in Japan,” sabi pa ni Cynthia.
