Li and Xing crowned Volvo China Junior Match Play champions

The 19th Volvo China Junior Match Play Championship came to an exciting conclusion on Friday as Li Zhengda captured the boy's group competition, while Xing Feiyu was crowned the girl's champion.

Playing over The Dunes at Shenzhou Peninsula East Course in Wanning, Hainan province, the 11th seeded Li put away the fourth seeded Gu Liangliang 3 & 1. The girl's competition proved a tighter battle as 13-year-old Xing battled back from being a hole down to win the penultimate hole and beat Liu Yingyuan 1 up.

In the consolation matches, Wang Zihao defeated Shi Haoxuan 2 & 1 in the boy's competition to finish third. His sister, Wang Ziming, won the girl's consolation when the fifth seeded Chen Zhuo withdrew before the match with injury.

The 14-year-old Li, who earlier this week beat his older brother, Li Zhengqian, 3 & 2, in the quarter-final, started his match on a strong note when he made a birdie three on the opening hole to go 1 up. The 15-year-old Gu then squared the match twice over the first five holes before carding a birdie at the par-four eighth to go 1 up.
