Chow Kwong Choi (Chinese: 周光才; born 3 December 1943) is a former Hong Kong cyclist. He competed in three events at the 1964 Summer Olympics. He is the twin brother of fellow former cyclist Chow Kwong Man.[1]
Around 1959, Chow began to participate in competitive cycling.[2] He received a bronze medal at the 1961 Asian Cycling Championships.[2] According to Carl Myatt of the South China Morning Post, his "success had the desired effect of catapulting the youthful Hong Kong Cycling Association—it was formed in 1960—into international prominence".[2] Chow competed in the 1965 Asian Cycling Championships.[3][4]
