Sarah Lee Wai-sze, Hong Kong’s beloved home-grown sporting icon, has finally retired from competitive cycling and is expected to soon take up a coaching role at the Hong Kong Sports Institute. Local sports fans will miss her and her mesmerising performances in cycling competitions.
The accolades and achievements Lee has amassed in her cycling career are nothing short of spectacular, but what stands out apart from her impressive resume is the dogged determination and perseverance displayed while battling injuries big and small in her quest for greatness. To be able to win two bronze medals almost a decade apart at two separate Olympics, in 2012 and 2021, speaks volumes about her commitment and dedication to a strict regimen and round-the-clock training.
Her on-bike achievements are well-known, but her off-bike influence is equally far-reaching.
