00:00The Men's Curling Team of the Philippines won in the Asian Winter Games in China.
00:06From being No. 51 in the World Ranking, the Philippines will be holding the Giltong Medal.
00:12Here is the sports heroine, Darlene Cai.
00:18The Philippine Men's Curling Team won their first Winter Games medal in the 9th Asian Winter Games in Harbin, China.
00:29The whole country was surprised to see the proud fans and officials from the Philippine Sports Commission and Philippine Olympic Committee.
00:38They couldn't believe the success, especially from being No. 51 in the World Rankings, the Philippines will be holding the Giltong Medal.
01:00The impact with the crowd and the friendly people over there, it was such amazing.
01:07It's just amazing. Again, we won the game after the last stone.
01:13Curling, which is also called chess on ice, is not yet that popular in the Philippines.
01:19It is a combination of physical skills and strategy, where the goal of the opposing team is to move the stones to the target.
01:26There is no curling facility here in the Philippines, that's why they are still training in Switzerland.
01:30That's why they called for a curling facility here.
01:34We request expenses. This is too expensive, this is not a joke.
01:38We really need that financial support to sustain even the developmental stage.
01:47We hope that they would learn to love floor curling and hopefully that would be the jump-off point for these floor curlers to become actual ice curlers in the future.
01:58POC is already calling for a courtesy call of Curling Pilipinas in Malacanang.
02:02Curling athletes will immediately return to training as preparation for the pre-Olympic qualifying event to continue their fight until the 2026 Winter Olympics.
02:13This is the first news. Darlene Cai for GMA Integrated News.
