Biography

Lo Man Wai, affectionately known simply as M.W., and later in his life as the ‘Grand Old Man’ of Hong Kong tennis, was educated in England as a solicitor before returning to the territory. At the Hong Kong Grass Court Championships, he partnered with his brother M.K. Lo to win the men’s doubles in 1920 and added the men’s singles in 1929. In addition, he finished runner-up in singles to Ng Sze Kwong in 1920 and 1922. At the Hong Kong Hardcourt Championships, he won the mixed doubles with his sister Enid in 1928, 1930, and 1932, thus becoming the only player to have won a local major in doubles with both his brother and sister.
