The elder Yulo is the top favorite in the floor exercise final and is chasing gold in three other apparatus finals while Eldrew is the lone Filipino qualifier in the high bar - a strength that Carlos is trying to emulate.
Eldrew placed seventh in the high bar with a score of 13.433, helping the 18-year-old finish seventh in the individual all-around with a total of 77.264.
Caloy bared that he seeks advice from Eldrew with regards to the high bar.
“Hindi ko kayang gawin yung ginagawa niya sa high bar. Nagtatanong po ako sa kanya, ‘yung feeling and ‘yung technique,” Carlos said of his brother Eldrew.
Eldrew, 18, said he was surprised when Carlos started asking him for tips.
“Sobrang nakaka-overwhelm. Hindi naman ako pinakamagaling sa high bar. But unexpected na nagtatanong siya kasi ako lagi ang nagtatanong. Gusto ko lagi, ako nagsi-seek ng help kasi gusto ko matuto at mag-improve at gumaling.
"Siya ang mas experienced sa akin. Ako ang parating nagtatanong nung una. Pero nagulat ako na nagtatanong siya sa akin na, ‘Drew, paano gawin ‘tong skills na ‘to,’” Eldrew said.
