At the world's summit, Grace Lau Mo-sheung, an alumnus of Lam Tai Fai College, has once again made headlines in the world of karate. On Sunday, May 25, during the Asian Karate Championships held in Uzbekistan, Grace faced off against Japan's Ono Maho, her biggest rival, in the women's individual kata finals. Being their fourth clash this season, she finally emerged victorious with a score of 42.7, just one point ahead of Ono. This hard-fought win secured her third consecutive title at the Asian Championships, contributing to Hong Kong's total medal haul of one gold and three bronze.
Grace's journey in this year's championships was impressive. Having previously won gold in the last two Asian Championships, she entered the competition with confidence after a strong start to the season. In January, she claimed a silver medal at the K1 Super League event in Paris, followed by two gold medals at the tournaments in Hangzhou, China, and Cairo, Egypt. Her performance has positioned her as one of the top competitors in the sport.
Grace's achievements are a testament to her dedication and skill in karate, making her a prominent figure in the sport and a source of inspiration for aspiring athletes in Hong Kong and beyond.
