Philippine Star – A DREAM SIX YEARS IN THE MAKING 🥇…
Professional volleyball player Bernadeth Pons reflected on her journey of dreaming and achieving a gold medal win at the Southeast Asian (SEA) Games on Monday.
“This was just a dream six years ago. 2019 when we won our first SEA Games medal (Bronze), ‘yun din yung first time na nalaman ko na ‘pag nag-champion pala kayo ire-raise ang flag niyo and you’ll sing your National Anthem from the top of the podium. :relaxed: At that very moment, I told myself that ‘Someday, Philippine Flag naman yung nandiyan,'” she wrote in her post.
Pons, together with Sisi Rondina, Dij Rodriguez, and Sunny Villapando, won the country’s first-ever gold medal in women’s beach volleyball during the 2025 SEA Games.
“Finally, that ‘someday’ has turned into reality. We are now SEA GAMES GOLD MEDALISTS,” Pons happily stated. (Instagram/Bernadeth Pons)
