Eudice Chong

She started competing in Junior Novice competitions in fifth grade in 2006 and won the Comp 3 under-10 and Comp 4 under-12 singles before attending the Talent Group trials that earned her a selection.{{Cite web|url=https://www.tennishk.org/wp-content/uploads/2020/04/2016_Annual-Report.pdf|title=HKTA Annual Report 2006|website=Hong Kong Tennis Association|language=en|access-date=2021-02-01}}

She then captured the under-12 girls' singles title at the Hong Kong National Junior Tennis Championships 2008 by beating Caroline Lampl,{{Cite web|url=https://www.tennishk.org/wp-content/uploads/2020/04/2019_Annual-Report.pdf|title=HKTA Annual Report 2008|website=Hong Kong Tennis Association|language=en|access-date=2021-02-01}} who went on to win three NCAA championships with Stanford University.{{Cite web|url=https://gostanford.com/sports/womens-tennis/roster/caroline-lampl/15305|title=2018-19 Women's Tennis Roster|website=Stanford University|language=en|access-date=2021-02-05}}

At age 16, Chong added the Hong Kong National Junior Tennis Championships 2012 under-18 girls' singles title.{{Cite web|url=https://www.tennishk.org/wp-content/uploads/2020/07/HKTA-2012_Annual-Report.pdf|title=HKTA Annual Report 2012|website=Hong Kong Tennis Association|language=en|access-date=2021-02-01}} In 2010 and 2011, she claimed back-to-back CRC Open 18 & Under School Girls' Open Singles Championship titles.{{Cite web|url=http://www.crcopen.com/2010/CRC_ViewDraw.aspx|title=18 & Under School Girls' Open Singles Championship|website=CRC Open 2010|language=en|access-date=2021-02-06}}{{Cite web|url=http://www.crcopen.com/2011/CRC_ViewDraw.aspx|title=18 & Under School Girls' Open Singles Championship|website=CRC Open 2011|language=en|access-date=2021-02-06}} She was selected to represent Hong Kong in the under-14 WJT events in 2010 and 2011, as well as the under-16 Junior Fed Cup competitions in 2012 and 2013.{{Cite web|url=https://www.tennishk.org/wp-content/uploads/2020/07/HKTA-2012_Annual-Report.pdf|title=HKTA Annual Report 2012|website=Hong Kong Tennis Association|language=en|access-date=2021-02-01}}{{Cite web|url=https://www.tennishk.org/wp-content/uploads/2020/07/Annual-report-2013.pdf|title=HKTA Annual Report 2013|website=Hong Kong Tennis Association|language=en|access-date=2021-02-06}} With academics being first priority, Chong competed on a limited schedule on the ITF Junior Circuit but nevertheless captured two singles and seven doubles titles and peaked at a career-high No. 200 (6 January 2014) in the world.{{Cite web|url=https://www.itftennis.com/en/players/eudice-chong/800315563/hkg/wt/s/overview/|title=Eudice Chong Overview|website=International Tennis Federation|language=en|access-date=2021-02-06}}

When Chong arrived in Connecticut in 2014, Wesleyan had only made it to the NCAA tournament just once in its program's 42-year history. Moreover, the school had yet to produce an individual national champion. In her freshman year, Chong defeated Joulia Likhanskaia (Bowdoin College), 6–4, 4–6, 7–5, to win the NCAA Division III women's singles championship. In 2016, she beat Juli Raventos (Williams College), 6–2, 7–5, to repeat as champion. In 2017, Chong saw off the challenge of Rebecca Ho (Washington University in St. Louis), 6–4, 2–6, 6–2, to three-peat. Then, in her senior year in 2018, she defeated Victoria Yu (Wesleyan University), 7–6, 6–2, to become the first player, man or woman, in NCAA tennis history to capture four straight singles titles at any division of collegiate tennis.{{Cite web|url=https://www.tennishk.org/en/news-detail/eudice-chong-nets-unprecedented-fourth-straight-ncaa-diii-singles-crown/|title=Eudice Chong nets unprecedented fourth straight NCAA DIII women's singles crown|date=2018-06-09|website=tennishk.org|author=Andy Yanne|language=en|access-date=2021-02-06}}{{Cite web|url=http://tenniskalamazoo.blogspot.com/2018/05/wesleyans-chong-wins-fourth-consecutive.html|title=Wesleyan's Chong Wins Fourth Consecutive Division III Singles Title|author=Colette Lewis|website=Zoo Tennis|date=2018-05-26|language=en|access-date=2021-02-06}}{{Cite web|url=https://athletics.wesleyan.edu/sports/wten/2017-18/releases/20180613jj0z6y|title=Eudice Chong Named Division III Honda Athlete of the Year|date=2018-06-13|website=Wesleyan Athletics|language=en|access-date=2020-03-28|archive-date=2019-05-20|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190520012545/http://athletics.wesleyan.edu/sports/wten/2017-18/releases/20180613jj0z6y|url-status=dead}}{{Cite web|url=https://www.collegiatewomensportsawards.com/archives/dIII/index|title=Past DIII Woman Athlete of the Year Winners|website=CWSA|language=en|access-date=2020-03-28}}

Chong then garnered the prestigious Division III Honda Athlete of the Year Award to conclude a stellar college career. The Honda Award honors the nation's top women in collegiate sports in recognition of their superior athletic skills, leadership, academic excellence, and eagerness to participate in community service. Inaugurated in 1976 for Division I athletes, followed by Divisions II and III in 1988, Chong is only the third tennis player in history to receive the Honda Athlete of the Year Award accolade among all divisions.{{Cite web|url=https://athletics.wesleyan.edu/sports/wten/2017-18/releases/20180613jj0z6y|title=Eudice Chong Named Division III Honda Athlete of the Year|date=2018-06-13|website=Wesleyan Athletics|language=en|access-date=2020-03-28|archive-date=2019-05-20|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190520012545/http://athletics.wesleyan.edu/sports/wten/2017-18/releases/20180613jj0z6y|url-status=dead}}{{Cite web|url=https://www.collegiatewomensportsawards.com/archives/dIII/index|title=Past DIII Woman Athlete of the Year Winners|website=CWSA|language=en|access-date=2020-03-28}}{{Cite web|url=https://www.collegiatewomensportsawards.com/releases/2017-18/20180613chong|website=CWSA|title=Eudice Chong of Wesleyan (CT) University Named DIII Honda Athlete of the Year|date=2018-06-13|language=en|access-date=2021-02-15}}

Chong was presented with this honor at THE Collegiate Women Sports Awards (CWSA) presented by Honda that was telecasted live on the CBS Sports Network on June 25, 2018 from the Founders' Room at the Galen Center on the campus of the University of Southern California in downtown Los Angeles. The honor was voted on by national balloting among 1,000 NCAA member schools as part of the Collegiate Women Sports Awards program since 1976.{{Cite web|url=https://www.collegiatewomensportsawards.com/releases/2017-18/20180613chong|website=CWSA|title=Eudice Chong of Wesleyan (CT) University Named DIII Honda Athlete of the Year|date=2018-06-13|language=en|access-date=2021-02-15}}

She was named Division III ITA National Senior Player of the Year and finished her career at Wesleyan as the all-time leader in singles wins, in addition to her four first-team All-Americas in both singles and doubles, and three NESCAC Player of the Year honors. Chong also led her team to three consecutive NCAA tournaments from 2016 to 2018. In 2015, her freshman year, Chong became the first Wesleyan women's tennis player in program history to compete in the individual NCAA Championships.{{Cite web|url=http://wesleyanargus.com/2018/06/15/eudice-chong-18-named-diii-athlete-of-the-year/|title=Eudice Chong '18 Named DIII Athlete of the Year|website=The Wesleyan Argus|date=15 June 2018 |language=en|access-date=2020-03-28}}

All four years, she held the year-end Division III No. 1 ranking and was a four-time selection to the ITA Collegiate All-Star Team, which featured the nation's top-ranked men and women from the year-end Oracle/ITA Collegiate Tennis Rankings, in addition to winners of the Oracle ITA National Fall Championships and NCAA Division I and III Championships.{{Cite web|url=https://www.wearecollegetennis.com/awards/ita-all-star-team/|title=ITA All-Star Team|website=We Are College Tennis|language=en|access-date=2021-01-31}}{{Cite web |date=2018-06-13 |title=Eudice Chong of Wesleyan (CT) University Named DIII Honda Athlete of the Year |url=https://www.collegiatewomensportsawards.com/releases/2017-18/20180613chong |access-date=2021-02-15 |website=CWSA |language=en}}

At the 2017 ITA Oracle Cup (formerly the ITA National Small College Championships) at Indian Wells, Chong defeated Ysabel Gonzalez Rico (Emory), 7–6, 6–2, to win the Division III women's singles and then teamed up with Victoria Yu (Wesleyan) to beat Ysabel Gonzalez Rico and Bridget Harding (Emory), 6–1, 6–1, to win the Division III women's doubles. The duo then saw off NAIA champions Megan Bianco and Daniela Farfan (Keiser), 6–1, 6–2, and Division II winners Hanna Volikova and Alina Kislitskaya (Indianapolis), 6–4, 6–2, to win the Women's Doubles Championship, which automatically secured them a berth in the ITA Fall National Championships.{{Cite web|url=https://www.itatennis.co/ita-archives/AboutITA/News/Georgia_Gwinnett__Wesleyan_Win_Men_s_And_Women_s_Oracle_Cup_Doubles_Championships.html|title=Georgia Gwinnett, Wesleyan Win Men's And Women's Oracle Cup Doubles Championships|website=Intercollegiate Tennis Association|language=en|access-date=2021-02-06}}

At the Oracle ITA National Fall Championships, Chong and Yu then knocked out No. 6 seed Jessie Aney and Alexa Graham (North Carolina), 6–3, 6–3, in the opening round and then eliminated another Division I pair, Mami Adachi and Akvile Parazinskaite (Kentucky), 6–2, 5–7, [10–8], before they were upended by Alexa Bortles and Arianne Hartono (Ole Miss), 6–2, 6–2, in the quarterfinals. Hartono, as it turned out, would go on to win the 2018 NCAA Division I singles title.{{Cite web|url=https://nescac.com/news/2017/10/17/10_17_2017_3580.aspx|title=Wesleyan Duo of Chong and Yu Sweep Division III ITA Oracle Cup Finals|website=NESCAC|language=en|access-date=2021-02-06}}

Chong graduated from Wesleyan University with a Psychology major and a minor in Asian Studies. A number of Division I schools, including Harvard, Dartmouth, and Georgetown showed interest in her early in the recruitment process, but her motivation to experience the unique and academically challenging college life of a small liberal arts school eventually saw her commit to Wesleyan.{{Cite web|url=https://www.middletownpress.com/middletown/article/State-of-art-Wesleyan-tennis-courts-opening-a-12985443.php|title=State-of-art Wesleyan tennis courts opening a point of joint pride for college, Middletown|author=Cassandra Day|date=2018-06-11|website=The Middletown Press|language=en|access-date=2021-02-20}}{{Cite web|url=http://newsletter.blogs.wesleyan.edu/2018/06/11/eudice-chong-18-coach-mike-fried-a-scholar-athlete-program-for-champions/|title=Eudice Chong '18, Coach Mike Fried: A Scholar-Athlete Program for Champions|date=2018-06-11|author=Cynthia Rockwell|website=wesleyan.edu|language=en|access-date=2021-02-03}}

In June 2018, she embarked on a career as a full-time touring professional following her graduation.

At the World University Games in Naples, Italy, in 2019, Chong captured a bronze medal in women's singles and women's doubles. In the process, she became the first tennis player from Hong Kong to medal in singles and the first to capture two tennis medals at the same Universiade.{{Cite web|url=https://www.hksi.org.hk/annual-report/2019-20/our-focus-excelling-in-sports/international-results/|title=HKSI Annual Report 2019/20|website=Hong Kong Sports Institute|language=en|access-date=2021-02-17}}

With the global pandemic adversely impacting the ITF Women's World Tennis Tour, the latter part of 2020 saw Chong make a concerted assault on the local tournaments in Hong Kong. She became the first player to equal Paulette Moreno's feat of winning the ladies' singles, ladies' doubles, and mixed doubles titles simultaneously at both the CRC Open and the Hong Kong National Tennis Championships in the same calendar year, a record that had stood untouched for 36 years.{{Cite web|url=https://www.tennishk.org/en/news-detail/maiden-victory-for-brian-yeung-eudice-chong-at-prudential-hk-nationals|title=Maiden victory for Brian Yeung, Eudice Chong at Prudential HK Nationals|author=Andy Yanne|date=2020-11-30|website=tennishk.org|language=en|access-date=2021-02-06}}

Chong made her debut at the 2016 Hong Kong Tennis Open when she was awarded a wildcard for the qualifying draw. With a modest WTA ranking of No. 995, she managed to come from a set down to beat 201st-ranked Shuko Aoyama, 4–6, 6–4, 6–1, before she was ousted by No. 164 Tereza Martincová of the Czech Republic.{{Cite web|url=https://www.hktennisopen.hk/en/news/daily-round-9-oct/|title=Daily Round-Up (9 Oct)|website=Hong Kong Tennis Open|date=2018-10-09|language=en|access-date=2021-02-06}}

In 2018, now ranked No. 590, she was given a main draw wildcard and faced 145th-ranked American Christina McHale. Trailing by a break and 5–3, Chong rallied to win three games in succession to force a tiebreak before claiming seven points in a row from 2–0 down to grab the breaker. However, the former world No. 24 made the necessary adjustments and tidied up her wayward groundstrokes to progress, 6–7, 6–2, 6–1.

She also competed in the doubles and was given a main-draw wildcard in 2016 (w/ Katherine Ip) and 2018 (w/ Zhang Ling) but went out in the first round to Nao Hibino / Alexandrina Naydenova and Alizé Cornet / Zheng Saisai, respectively.{{Cite web|url=https://www.hktennisopen.hk/en/news/daily-round-9-oct/|title=Daily Round-Up (9 Oct)|website=Hong Kong Tennis Open|date=2018-10-09|language=en|access-date=2021-02-06}}{{Cite web|url=https://www.wtatennis.com/tournament/1074/hong-kong/2018/draws|title=Doubles Draw|website=Women's Tennis Association|language=en|access-date=2021-02-06}}

Before turning pro in 2018, she won her maiden singles title at the $15k Anning in 2017 and her career-first doubles title at the ITF Hong Kong in 2016, partnering Katherine Ip. Since then, she has amassed a total of two singles and ten doubles titles on the pro circuit. In 2019 alone, she captured six $25k doubles titles, the most by any Hong Kong player on the pro circuit. All through her travels on the tour, she has picked up titles in China, Hong Kong, Uzbekistan, Japan, and Thailand.{{Cite web|url=https://www.itftennis.com/en/players/eudice-chong/800315563/hkg/wt/d/titles/|title=Eudice Chong Titles|website=International Tennis Federation|language=en|access-date=2021-02-07}}

Since coming back after COVID-19 pandemic in October 2021, Chong has won a total of 13 doubles and two singles titles with a 68–9 win–loss record in doubles within 2021-2022.

In April 2022, Chong won her first $25k singles title in Nottingham.

Chong had a 59–7 record with Cody Wong in doubles, winning a total of thirteen titles. From January to April 2022, they kept a 28 game-winning streak with seven titles, including a $60k title in Pretoria.

In July 2023, Chong won her first $100k doubles title at the Figueira da Foz International Ladies Open.

Chong made her Fed Cup debut at age 15 against Sri Lanka at the 2012 Asia/Oceania Group II qualifying in Shenzhen. She was also nominated in 2013, 2014, 2017, 2018, 2019 and 2022. She competed in a total of 25 ties and has an overall 22-9 win–loss record, going 15-5 in singles and 7-4 in doubles. Her total of 22 victories places her third all-time behind only Zhang Ling (37-26) and Tong Ka Po (23-20). In 2014, Chong went undefeated in Group II with three wins in singles and one in doubles to help TeamHK secure promotion to Group I for 2015. In 2017, she partnered Katherine Ip to win the deciding doubles against Nigina Abduraimova and Akgul Amanmuradova, 6-7, 6-3, 6-3, to seal a come-from-behind 2-1 victory over Uzbekistan in the final to send Hong Kong up to Group I for the following year's campaign.

At the 18th Asian Games Jakarta-Palembang 2018, Eudice Chong produced the first noteworthy upset when she sent third-seeded Incheon 2014 silver medalist, Luksika Kumkhum, tumbling out in the second round of the women's singles, 4-6, 7-6, 7-6. The HK rep then outplayed Chinese Taipei's No. 14 seed Chang Kai-chen in straight sets 6-0, 6-2, to set up a quarterfinal meeting with India's No. 1, Ankita Raina. Since a playoff for outright third place was not required, a spot in the semis would guarantee the minimum of a bronze medal. Since tennis was first contested at the third Asian Games in Tokyo 1958, Tsui Yuen Yuen is the only player from Hong Kong to medal in tennis when she claimed a silver in women's doubles in Jakarta 1962 with Ceylon's Ranjani Jayasuriya. However, after jumping out to a 4-1 lead against the world No. 189, she was unable to maintain that advantage, as her opponent fought back from the verge of losing the first set with some high-powered tennis to go through, 6-4, 6-1.{{Cite web|url=https://www.tennishk.org/en/news-detail/quarterfinal-showings-for-zhang-ling-eudice-chong-in-singles-and-brian-yeung-zhang-ling-in-mixed-doubles/|title=Quarterfinal showings for Zhang Ling, Eudice Chong in singles and Brian Yeung, Zhang Ling in mixed doubles|website=tennishk.org|date=2018-08-26|author=Andy Yanne|language=en|access-date=2021-02-08}} In 2014, Chong was also a member of the Hong Kong women's contingent that reached the quarterfinals of the team event in Incheon, South Korea.{{Cite web|url=https://www.tennishk.org/wp-content/uploads/2020/07/HKTA-Annual-Report-2014.pdf|title=HKTA Annual Report 2014|website=Hong Kong Tennis Association|language=en|access-date=2021-02-01}}

In doing so, she set another precedent as the first player from Hong Kong to medal twice in tennis at the same Universiade.{{Cite web|url=https://www.tennishk.org/en/news-detail/eudice-chong-medals-in-historic-singles-tallies-second-bronze-with-maggie-ng-in-doubles//|title=Eudice Chong medals in historic singles; Tallies second bronze with Maggie Ng in doubles|website=tennishk.org|date=2019-07-15|author=Andy Yanne|language=en|access-date=2021-02-21}} Chong also competed at Gwangju 2015 and Taipei 2017, where she was one win away from the medal rounds in women's doubles partnering Katherine Ip.{{Cite web|url=https://www.tennishk.org/wp-content/uploads/2020/04/2017_Annual-Report.pdf|title=HKTA Annual Report 2017|website=Hong Kong Tennis Association|language=en|access-date=2021-02-01}}

In the 2021 Shaanxi edition, Chong reached quarterfinals in women's singles, but lost in first round of women's doubles with Cody Wong.

At the All China Games in 2017, Chong played in the women's team event that saw Hong Kong finish ninth overall among 27 provincial sides. In women's singles, she served for the first set against No. 1 seed Zhang Shuai in the second round with a 6-5 lead and was up a break leading 2-0 in the second before she eventually fell to the world No. 29, 7-6, 6-4.{{Cite web|url=https://www.tennishk.org/wp-content/uploads/2020/04/2017_Annual-Report.pdf|title=HKTA Annual Report 2017|website=Hong Kong Tennis Association|language=en|access-date=2021-02-07}}

In Dalian in 2013, Chong qualified for the maindraw in women's doubles together with Katherine Ip.{{Cite web|url=https://www.tennishk.org/wp-content/uploads/2020/07/Annual-report-2013.pdf|title=HKTA Annual Report 2013|website=Hong Kong Tennis Association|language=en|access-date=2021-02-14}}

Held in Nanjing in 2013, Chong reached the round of 16 in both women's singles and mixed-doubles partnering Andrew Li.{{Cite web|url=https://www.tennishk.org/wp-content/uploads/2020/07/Annual-report-2013.pdf|title=HKTA Annual Report 2013|website=Hong Kong Tennis Association|language=en|access-date=2021-02-14}}

Chong was born in Long Island, New York. At age 3, she relocated to Hong Kong where her formative years of schooling and development in tennis took shape. Her earliest experience with the sport came in the form of once-a-week private lessons at a local tennis club, but genuine enthusiasm did not surface until the coach enrolled her for organized tennis with the Hong Kong Tennis Association (now HKCTA).

She is currently coached by former Indian Davis Cupper and 2010 Asian Games bronze medallist, Karan Rastogi, while her physical coach is Romain Deffet, former personal trainer to Li Na, Daniela Hantuchova, and Peng Shuai. In March 2019, Chong, together with fellow Fed Cup teammate, Cody Wong, were the first players selected to the EFG HKTA Tour Team, a three-year financial commitment by the EFG Young Athletes Foundation (YAF) to support local talent.{{Cite web|url=https://sg.efgbank.com/doc/jcr:8022beaf-3de4-4292-a89f-cc8350488350/20190409_EFG%20Young%20Athletes%20Foundation%20commits%20to%20providing%20development%20funding%20for%20touring%20players.pdf/lang:en/20190409_EFG%20Young%20Athletes%20Foundation%20commits%20to%20providing%20development%20funding%20for%20touring%20players.pdf|title=EFG Young Athletes Foundation commits to providing development funding for touring players|date=2019-04-08|website=EFG Bank|language=en|access-date=2021-02-05}}

Currently, Chong is sponsored by K-Swiss (shoe and apparel) and Wilson (racquet).
