劉佳林

English

Lau Ka-lam is a member of the Hong Kong, China artistic swimming squad, competing chiefly in team events. At the Hungarian Open in Budapest, held over three days from 30 June to 2 July 2023 and drawing competitors from countries including Poland and Latvia, Lau joined Lee Na-di, Chong Yat-fu, Chu Ka-wing, Hung Sze-ching, Lam Nok-yan, Li Chi-yin and Wong Wing-ka to win gold in the team technical routine; Hong Kong finished that meet with two gold, one silver and two bronze medals. Later in the year Lau was named to the Hong Kong delegation for the Hangzhou Asian Games and took part in the team acrobatic routine, in which the Hong Kong eight - Chu Ka-wing, Hung Sze-ching, Lam Nok-yan, Lau, Li Chi-yin, Mok Ka-yan, Wong Wing-ka and Wu Kiu-lok - scored 16.05 for difficulty, 86.0666 for elements and 62.45 for artistic impression, a total of 148.5166 points that placed them eighth. Artistic swimming has been the sport's official English name since FINA renamed synchronised swimming in 2017, although local and mainland Chinese media still often call it synchronised or 'flower' swimming. Beyond these results, little about her personal background - age, club or training history - is publicly documented, and the record shows only a squad member who has represented Hong Kong at an international open meet and at the Asian Games.
