Controversy
In March 2024, during her speech at the "Hong Kong Weightlifting Invitation 2024", Ip Wing-yuk described Hong Kong as a "relatively small country", which caused dissatisfaction from the Hong Kong government and Sports Federation & Olympic Committee of Hong Kong, China (SF&OC). Later, the SF&OC acknowledged that it was a slip of the tongue and decided not to pursue the matter further.

In May 2024, during the opening ceremony speech of the "Asian Equipped Powerlifting Championships cum Asian University Cup", Ip Wing-yuk mistakenly stated that "13 countries are participating in the competition". Since Taiwan and Hong Kong were participating in the competition, the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (HKSAR) Government criticized her statement for potentially violating the One-China principle.
