Career
Leung began learning to skate in 2009.[1] In the 2015–2016 season, she placed fourth in the senior ranks at the 2016 Chinese Championships but was ineligible for senior and junior internationals due to her age.
2016–2017 season
Making her junior international debut, Leung placed fifth at the Asian Open Trophy in August 2016 and 10th at an October Junior Grand Prix event in Dresden, Germany. In March, she ranked 8th in the short program, 10th in the free skate, and 9th overall at the 2017 World Junior Championships in Taipei. She became the first Hong Kong skater to finish in the top ten at an ISU Championship. Her result allows Hong Kong to send two ladies' single skaters to the 2018 edition.
