Career

[edit]

Hui made his international debut at the 2015 World Wushu Championships where he placed seventh in both taijiquan and taijijian.[1] A year later at the 2016 Asian Wushu Championships, he won the gold medal in taijiquan.[2] At the 2017 World Wushu Championships, Hui won medals in taijiquan and taijijian.[3] At the 2018 Asian Games, he finished in a four-way tie for second in taijiquan and a three-way tie for fourth in taijijian, thus ending in a fourth place ranking in the all-around taijiquan event.[4] A year later at the 2019 World Wushu Championships, he became the world champion in men's taijijian.[5]

In 2023 at the 2021 Summer World University Games, Hui won the gold medal in men's taijijian, the first gold medal for Hong Kong at the Games.[6][7] He additionally won a bronze medal in taijiquan.[8][9] Shortly after, he won the silver medal in men's taijiquan and taijijian combined at the 2022 Asian Games.[10][11][12] Several months later, he won the gold medal in taijiquan doubles at the 2024 Asian Wushu Championships.[13]
