The Philippine's quest for an Olympic gold rests on the shoulders of two jins - Tshomlee Go and Mary Antoinette Rivero. The two trained in Korea for two months. both athletes failed to land a medal in the 2004 Athens Olympics four. This time they are confident they will be able to finally bring home the elusive gold medal for the country. The closest bid for the elusive gold was that of Mansueto "Onyok" velasco when he won the silver medal in boxing at the 1996 Atlanta Olympics. Will the 84 year-old Olympic medal gold quest finally ends this time? Good luck Tshomlee and Antoinette.

My country's only hope to grab a gold is in Badminton. Unfortunately we failed yesterday. China is too strong. But we still proud of the player to get a silver in this Olympic 2008.
