Asian Games 2023: track cycling star Ceci Lee adds second silver in omnium, eyes road race medal
- Hong Kong’s Ceci Lee Sze-wing finishes as runner-up behind Japan’s Yumi Kajihara in women’s omnium on Friday evening
- The 22-year-old will now switch her sights to next week’s road race in Hangzhou, after silver in women’s Madison on Thursday
Hong Kong track cycling prodigy Ceci Lee Sze-wing has enjoyed a “complete” few days after adding an omnium silver to her medal tally at her debut Asian Games on Friday.
The 22-year-old finished first in one of the four races at the Chun’an Jieshou Sports Centre Velodrome, located some 190 kilometres to the south of Hangzhou, but had to settle for her second silver behind Japan’s Yumi Kajihara, having also been the runner-up in the women’s Madison on Thursday.
The Hong Kong delegation has now won five golds, 13 silvers, and 18 bronze to date in Hangzhou – 36 medals in total,
Lee insisted she is not finished, however, and wants more with the women’s road race still to come next Wednesday.
“I wanted a medal for omnium so I have succeeded,” she said.
“It was unexpected, particularly with the team pursuit. Silver in omnium was my target so with these medals I am satisfied.
