He’s gone to school in America. He should apply for citizenship since he’ll more than likely be spending most of his life in the U.S.A. now that the queen is dead and Britain’s empire is quickly fading.
If he's head and shoulders above the competition and had a chance at a medal on the world stage he'd get his attention (look at non-Americans like JI). But as is he isn't even a lock to make the GB team in the 5/10k

You left because your lease was up. And Hong Kong is not independent.
