A moment of Filipino pride.
Though Mikee Cojuangco-Jaworski no longer competes internationally in equestrian sports, she remains deeply involved in the world of athletics.
Since 2013, she has been a member of the International Olympic Committee and now serves as an executive board member.
At the Paris 2024 Olympics, Mikee had the distinct honor of presenting awards for the women’s 57kg boxing division, where Filipina athlete and two-time Olympic medalist Nesthy Petecio earned a bronze medal.
This occasion echoes the pride felt when Mikee presented the Philippines’ first Olympic gold to Hidilyn Diaz, who triumphed in the women’s 55kg weightlifting category at the 2020 Tokyo Olympics.
