After a 20 year wait, another Pinoy finally went up the Olympic podium!
Hidilyn Diaz won silver at the weightlifting competition after the front runner - China - messed up. She was already assured of the bronze, but this twist of sporting fate moved her a notch higher.
Seeing her shedding tears of happiness while going up the podium left me a bit teary eyed, too. I could feel her pride and joy emanating from the computer screen.
Congratulations, Hidilyn. And here's to more medals from our athletes!
