National Championships
Years held: 1996 to 2011
2017 & 2018
Host cities: Hong Kong

National Championship tournaments were held annually in Hong Kong from 1996 through to 2011, then again in 2017 and 2018.[1][2] The winner of these events was named Hong Kong Champion and headed the national team at that years' World Championship.

Between 2012 and 2016 the title Hong Kong Champion was instead given to the Hong Kong player with the highest amount of Pro Points in a particular Pro Tour season.
