PSA Awards set January 27
MANILA, Philippines — A year to remember in Philippine sports annals will be celebrated by the Philippine Sportswriters Association (PSA) in grand fashion as it holds its annual Awards Night on Jan. 27, 2025 at the historic Manila Hotel.
In a memorable 2024 campaign, the Philippines elevated its standards by gaining a first-ever double gold medal in the Olympics courtesy of dynamic gymnast Carlos Yulo during the 33rd edition of the Games in Paris, France.
The feat came after lady weightlifter Hidilyn Diaz gave the country a breakthrough Olympic gold in Tokyo in 2021, and transpired during the same period when the Filipinos commemorate their 100 years of participation in the quadrennial showcase.
The Paris stint also saw boxing rising to the occasion again by winning a pair of bronze through the robust fists of Nesthy Petecio and Aira Villegas.
Yulo and the rest of the Filipino Olympians including the country’s representatives to the Paralympic Games, will be at the forefront of the traditional festivities where the awarding of the Athlete of the Year serves as its highlight.
Another special part of the program is the induction of another Filipino great to the PSA Hall of Fame.
