ArenaPlus, the sportsbook platform of DigiPlus Interactive Corp., is joining the nation in celebrating the remarkable double gold medal victory of Carlos “Golden Boy” Yulo at the 2024 Olympic Games. In recognition of Yulo’s historic achievement, ArenaPlus is awarding the Olympian an “Astig Hero Bonus” of ₱5,000,000 in cash. This generous gesture underscores ArenaPlus’ pride and gratitude for Yulo’s exceptional representation of the Philippines in the world’s most prestigious sporting event.
DigiPlus, the parent company of ArenaPlus, has been a steadfast supporter of Carlos Yulo throughout his Olympic journey. As one of ArenaPlus’ official brand ambassadors, Yulo received unwavering support from the company during his Olympic campaign, reflecting their commitment to championing Filipino athletes on the global stage.
Before the Olympics, Yulo expressed his appreciation for the partnership with ArenaPlus during a send-off event attended by representatives from the company. “Maraming maraming salamat po na recognize niyo po ako at gusto niyo ko supportahan,” Yulo said. “Ibubuhos ko lahat at tatapatan ko po yung mga suportahan at salamat sa suporta niyong lahat at ipagdasal natin ang mga kasaling atleta sa Olympics.”
Yulo’s dedication and hard work culminated in his historic victories in men’s artistic gymnastics, where he secured two gold medals in the men’s floor and men’s vault exercises. These wins not only made Yulo the second-ever Filipino Olympic gold medalist but also the most decorated in the nation’s history.
DigiPlus Chairman Eusebio H. Tanco expressed optimism for Yulo’s future following these Olympic Games. “Carlos Yulo truly embodies the ‘astig’ Pinoy spirit,” Tanco said. “We couldn’t be prouder of how he has represented both our country and DigiPlus. Our warmest congratulations to him!”
Yulo’s success aligns with ArenaPlus’ vision of fostering a thriving and diverse interest in sports in the Philippines. With the financial support from ArenaPlus, Yulo now has the resources to further enhance his skills and training conditions, paving the way for greater achievements in his athletic career.
ArenaPlus also hopes that Yulo’s victory will inspire young athletes to explore a wide range of sports, nurturing their interests and contributing to the country’s potential in achieving excellence in various athletic disciplines.
