Hong Kong’s Haughey Returns With Pair Of Olympic Swimming Medals | South China Morning Post

Hong Kong swimmer Siobhan Haughey made her triumphant return home from the Paris Games on August 6, 2024. The city’s most decorated Olympian recently won bronze in the 100m and 200m women’s freestyle, three years after she nabbed two silver medals in the same events at the Tokyo Games. Haughey also earned Hong Kong’s first swimming gold medals in the 100m and 200m events at the 2022 Asian Games, as well as silvers in the 50m freestyle, 50m breaststroke and bronzes in the team relays. Against the backdrop of Haughey’s Games success, the city’s swimming chief has been under fire from Hong Kong fans and athletes. Days earlier, Ronnie Wong Man-chiu had described Haughey’s showing in Paris as “a bit regretful”.
