She shoulders a lot of the hope of a country still seeking its first Olympic gold; “The pressure is so great,” Diaz told the Inquirer’s Sport’s IQ on Friday night, deflecting expectations with a child-like smile.
The good news? According to strength and conditioning coach Julius Naranjo, we ain’t seen nothing yet.“You [can] expect Hidilyn to lift weights that you’ve never seen before,” he said.
“She’s on track. She’s going to put on a show, I’ll tell you that. Expect to see the best Hidilyn to date.”
According to [Philippine Daily Inquirer], it’s a different Hidilyn Diaz, indeed, that will fly to Tokyo from her training base in Malaysia.
