盧蔚豐

English

Lo Wai Fung is a Hong Kong male taekwondo athlete who competes in the men's under-68kg sparring event. Standing about 1.9m tall, he is a leading figure in the Hong Kong, China squad and the first taekwondo athlete ever to represent Hong Kong at the Olympic Games. In March 2024, at the Asian qualification tournament for the Paris Olympics in Tai'an, Shandong, Lo competed in the men's under-68kg category, beating opponents including Mongolia's Hangzhou Asian Games representative and a Chinese Taipei athlete who had won silver at the Chengdu World University Games, before winning his bronze-medal bout to claim Olympic qualification. It was the first time a Hong Kong, China taekwondo athlete had earned an Olympic place. At the Paris 2024 Olympics, Lo faced the refugee team's Ghotany in the qualification round of the men's under-68kg, landing repeated attacks to win 2-0 and reach the round of 16 for the first time in Hong Kong's history. He then met the reigning Olympic champion Ulugbek Rashitov of Uzbekistan, competing with great determination despite being the underdog, and later lost in the repechage to a Chinese athlete. He finished seventh, still Hong Kong's best Olympic taekwondo result, and went on to carry the Hong Kong, China flag at the Paris closing ceremony. In 2025 Lo represented Hong Kong at the 15th National Games, held across Guangdong, Hong Kong and Macao, in the men's under-68kg category, alongside team-mates such as Lam Siu Wai, So Yuen Ting, Cheuk Chun Yin and Tam Ching Nam. Over the years he has also competed at the Asian Games and Asian Championships and is regarded as one of the squad's leaders.
