A native of Lahug, Cebu, 19-year old Magielyn Didal gave Team Philippines the much needed 4th gold medal in the last remaining days of the 18th Asian Games in Jakarta, Indonesia. The daughter of a carpenter and a street vendor, she boosted the country’s medal standing (4-0-13), and ranks no. 17. She left a momentous victory in the said quadrennial continental sports event as she emerged the name to beat in the new sport of skateboarding. She will be a marked name as the said event will be included in the 2020 Tokyo Olympics. Congratulations!
