The Feng Shanshan Cup International Junior Golf Tournament came to a successful close at Mission Hills Dongguan on Friday.

Being a top-tier junior event sanctioned by the China Golf Association (CGA), this tournament stands as the highest-level junior competition under the CGA's purview.

With 139 participants, the tournament featured six categories categorized by age and gender. Dalian's Wang Haoyi secured victory in the boy’s Group A with a commanding 6-stroke lead over the runner-up, finishing 7 strokes under par.

Qingdao's Tang Rongze claimed the girl’s Group A title, sharing the winner's podium with her younger sister Tang Luo Qi, who triumphed in the girl’s Group B. The top three finishers in the boy's/girl's A groups now earn berths to compete in the 2025 Guangdong Tour season.

The B and C group competitions concluded with the crowning of four champions. Shanghai's Xu Chengrui emerged as the boy’s Group B champion, while Qingdao's Tang Luoqi secured victory in the girl’s Group B after a dramatic playoff. Chongqing's Jiao Zi staged a comeback to clinch the boy’s Group C title, while Qingdao's Wang Deng maintained her lead from day one to capture the girl's Group C championship with a two-stroke advantage.

Former world number one, Rio Olympics bronze medalist, and Grand Slam champion Feng Shanshan graced the tournament's opening ceremony and conducted the "Champion Training Camp."
