Rhys McClehaghan, a Pommel Horse World and Olympic champion is a fan of Carlos Yulo, I hope Rhys would train Carlos in Ireland on this apparatus. If that happens, Carlos might have a chance to win a podium finish on All Around competition in the future.
Luck good john
Congrats to such a lovely champion. Rhys represents the absolute best of the games. From an American w/ Irish ancestors (is plastic Paddy an actual thing?) 😅
Very articulate
LESSON LEARN FOE TODAY ....ANYONE CAN WIN GOLD IN OLYMPIC JUST DO YOUR BEST
Very excited and happy but also very confused how he represents both Northern Ireland and Ireland ? Can someone explain this to me ?? I thought this was Irelands win but he represents two countries ?? And Wiffen and both parents have English accents ? I need a little help here following
Can they get a bigger mic.
This young man is top of the world, and yet remains so grounded. Who do you want to be your next PM?
I've seen it a few times
Why are they referred to "gold medalist" than "Olympic Champion" 🤔🤷♀️
No Tricolours in Newtownards
Don’t get too exited,the dope test results aren’t back yet
Ok Karen
