HK celebrates record medal haul at University Games
The World University Games came to an end in Chengdu on Tuesday evening, after almost two weeks of competition.  Fireworks kicked off the 70-minute closing ceremony at the Chengdu Open Air Music Park, featuring 600 performers and a theme of "dreams, lighting up the future". The festivities also bid farewell to thousands of athletes participating in the games, where hosts China topped the medal table with 178, including 103 golds. For Hong Kong, its delegation of more than 140 athletes achieved the best results ever at the multisport competition, winning 12 medals - four golds, one silver, and seven bronze.  Cheung Ka-long added a University Games individual foil title to the Olympic crown he won in Tokyo, before helping the men's foil team strike gold. Fellow fencer Kaylin Hsieh won the women's epee individual event, while Samuel Hui secured the only non-fencing gold medal in the men's taijijian wushu event.  Secretary for Culture, Sports and Tourism Kevin Yeung hailed the athletes for their remarkable performances in Chengdu.  "Young Hong Kong athletes showcased their strong spirit and gave full play to their strengths, achieving Hong Kong's best ever result at the World University Games. We are thrilled by their exemplary performances, which have won glory for Hong Kong," Yeung said in a statement.  "Having high hopes for these young athletes, I believe many of them will strive to continue the legacy of Hong Kong's elite athletes and make Hong Kong people proud."
