Hong Kong team is fighting for points towards the Toyko 2020 Olympics on their home turf at the“YONEX-SUNRISE Hong Kong Open Badminton Championships 2019 part of the HSBC BWF World Tour Super 500”. This tournament is also a platform for local young players to train and gain experience. Fans are expecting Men’s Singles player Lee Cheuk Yiu Chang and Men’s Doubles duo Yonny Chung /Tam Chun Hei to advance from the qualifying round and take on the top players in the main draw.

23-year-old Lee Cheuk Yiu currently ranked No.28 in the world and the No.2 player of Hong Kong’s Men’s Singles, took his first international title in New Zealand Open 2017. He had a stunning performance and proved his potential last year, starting from the qualifying round and cruising all the way to top 4 in the Hong Kong Open and capturing a bronze medal in the Korea Master.

Although Yonny Chung and Tam Chun Hei didn’t play together for a long time, they have shown their great potential by winning Singapore International Series 2018 and advancing to the main draw in last year’s Hong Kong Open. With more training and experience, Chung /Tam who are currently ranked World No.90 will be the new hope of Hong Kong’s Men’s Doubles.
