Sunday is traditionally considered a day of rest, although sport always has other ideas, and when the National Games is on, that philosophy goes right out of the window.<\/p>\n

After a medal-filled start to the weekend for Hong Kong\u2019s athletes, there are hopes of more to come in the hours ahead. Not least in the track cycling, where Ceci Lee Sze-wing returns to action in the women\u2019s Madison.<\/p>\n

Earlier, Coleman Wong Chak-lam eased into the third round of the men\u2019s singles tennis, having had little trouble dispatching Hubei\u2019s Chen Ye in one hour and 16 minutes this morning.<\/p>\n

Siobhan Haughey apparently only races over 50 metres for fun, so will get a double dose of enjoyment this evening in the semi-finals of the freestyle and breaststroke after breezing through the heats.<\/p>\n

At Kai Tak Arena, fencers Cheung Ka-long, Ryan Choi Chun-yin and Leung Chin-yue are all through to the knockout stages of the men\u2019s foil, and the first two could meet in the semi-finals if they make it that far.<\/p>\n

And fresh from the boost Oscar Coggins and Cade Wright have given their team, the city\u2019s triathletes will race in the mixed relay on Victoria Harbourfront.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s going to be another busy day for all involved, so follow us for live coverage of all the action as it happens.<\/p>\n
