Career Highlights
2019 Season
-
Foshan Open: Made history by becoming the first player from Mainland China to win on the European Challenge Tour. After a 1-under 71 start, turned it on over the final 54 holes, with a 22-under performance highlighted by a second-round 63 that established a new Foshan GC record. Was four shots off the lead at the halfway point but took a share of the lead with Portugal’s Ricardo Santos following a 6-under 66. Played superb golf on the final day to pull ahead and defeat China’s Zecheng Dou by four shots.
-
Macau Championship: To close a solid rookie season, shot rounds of 67-67-69-66 to T9 in Macau that allowed him to finish the season seventh on the Order of Merit and earn a spot in the final stage of the Korn Ferry Tour Qualifying Tournament.
-
Haikou Classic: Turned in another great showing, finishing solo runner-up in Haikou. Recovered nicely from an opening round, 1-over 72 to card three consecutive 66s to finish at 14-under for his third top-10 in just six events. Closed two shots behind winner Quincy Quek.
-
Guangzhou Open: Fresh off his first pro victory, at the Huangshan Championship, carded back-to-back 67s in mid-July to T10, at 4-under.
-
Huangshan Championship: Won his first professional tournament in only his third Series start. Tournament was reduced to 54 holes due to weather. At Hidden Tiger GC, Bai started the day four shots behind second-round leader David Kocher but managed to turn things around Sunday. After making the turn at even-par, he racked up five birdies on the back nine to finish at 12-under. Over his three rounds, was 12-under and bogey-free on the back nine. Was the only player to shoot three sub-70 rounds (69-68-67), which secured him a two-shot victory over Kocher.
