In November 2019 he won the men's singles at the Hong Kong Open on home soil, becoming only the second Hong Kong man after Angus Ng Ka Long to win the tournament; he beat several top players including Shi Yuqi and Viktor Axelsen en route and entered the main draw only as a qualifier filling a withdrawal. His world ranking has generally stayed inside the top 20 in men's singles, peaking at No.14. In 2024 he qualified for the Paris Olympics and made his Games debut in the men's singles, beating Mexico's Luis Ramon Garrido in his group opener before losing to Chinese Taipei's Chou Tien-chen to finish 17th. In 2025 he reached the final of the India Open, a BWF World Tour Super 750 event, a career milestone. In 2026 he was selected for the Hong Kong delegation at the Aichi-Nagoya Asian Games in the men's team and men's singles, and that year he was runner-up in the men's singles at the China Masters.
