Hong Kong Olympic Double Medalist Asks Hongkongers to Support Local Athletes Continuously

In a post-match interview, Hong Kong's first-ever Olympic double medal winner Siobhan Bernadette Haughey told reporters that despite her Irish heritage, she was born and raised in Hong Kong and “takes great honor to represent Hong Kong in the Games.”

She said, she chose to represent Hong Kong because she was born there. “I was raised here and I learnt swimming here. I am proud to represent Hong Kong.”

Haughey continued to say, “It’s grateful to see people coming together to watch me compete in the Olympic Games. I can feel the force that brings Hongkongers together and I am proud of it.”

In closing she asked for on-going support from Hong Kong people to local athletes that could go beyond Olympics that happens only every 4 years.
