Event Statistics Description
The China Tour travels to the historic province of Zhejiang for the Lanting Shaoxing Open, hosted at the prestigious Shaoxing Kuaijishan Golf Club. The primary challenge for the 108-man field is the course's intricate design, which incorporates the region's famous water networks and demanding doglegs that require precise positioning off the tee. The objective for the players is to navigate the fast, undulating greens while avoiding the lateral water hazards that frame many of the back-nine holes in this RMB 1,500,000 event.
Strategically, the opening round is a test of patience and local knowledge. The goal for the field is to manage the humid Jiangnan conditions and the often-deceptive breezes that swirl around the Kuaiji Mountains. The tactical focus for the contenders is to capitalize on the early par-5s to build momentum before tackling the more restrictive closing stretch. With significant Order of Merit points at stake—crucial for securing positions in the high-purse international co-sanctioned events later in the season—the ultimate goal for the starters is to post a score under par and remain within the top ten of the leaderboard.
Reports Result ListResult DescriptionThe opening round of the 2026 Lanting Shaoxing Open on Thursday, April 16, 2026, delivered a masterclass in precision as the China Tour returned to the historic cultural hub of Shaoxing. The primary objective for the 144-player field was to master the complex greens of the Kuaiji Mountain Golf Club, and several players successfully exploited the calm morning conditions to set a blistering pace for the week.
The session was defined by aggressive approach play and clinical putting. Chen Guxin and Lin Yuxin share the clubhouse lead after carding matching 6-under-par 66s. Chen's round was a display of consistency, featuring five birdies on a flawless back nine, while Lin utilized his power to reach two par-5s in two, securing vital eagles to climb the leaderboard. They are pursued by a group of international challengers, including Sarit Suwannarut and Hak Shun-yat, who both sit just one stroke back at 5-under-par. As the afternoon winds picked up off the surrounding mountains, scoring became significantly more difficult, leaving the early starters with a distinct advantage heading into Friday’s second round.
