Winter Olympics appearances (overview)

Hong Kong, a special administrative region (SAR) of the People's Republic of China, competed at the 2022 Winter Olympics in Beijing, China, from 4 to 20 February 2022.[1][2] The delegation competed under the formal name Hong Kong, China (Chinese: 中國香港). This was the SAR's sixth appearance at a Winter Olympic Games, since its first appearance in 2002.

Hong Kong's team consists of three athletes (two men and one woman) competing in two sports (alpine skiing and short track speed skating). This is the largest ever team Hong Kong has sent to the Winter Olympics.[3][4]

Sidney Chu was the country's flagbearer during the opening ceremony.[5][6][7] Meanwhile a volunteer was the flagbearer during the closing ceremony.[8][9]
