The Tokyo Olympics saw Chinese Hong Kong's best performance after the handover, as the delegation pocketed one gold, two silvers and three bronzes. Cheng attributed the feat to the support from the motherland.

"I'd say the youth of Hong Kong should participate in sports more often, and inherit the sportsmanship of the Chinese nation," said Cheng.
