This marks Obiena's second gold medal of the weekend, after ruling the 2021 ISTAF Indoor meet in Berlin with a record-setting performance of 5.80m.

The 5.80m is Obiena's personal best as well as a new national indoor pole vault record.

"Thank you for all the love and support," Obiena said on Facebook after his most recent achievement. "Stoked to be able to do what I do, especially at times like this."

Obiena will next compete at the Meeting HdF Pas-de-Calais in France tomorrow.

The 24-year-old pole vaulter is one of four Filipinos already assured of spots in the Tokyo Olympics, along with gymnast Carlos Yulo and boxers Irish Magno and Eumir Marcial.
