The DP World Tour has now moved on to China for its next stop, with the 2024 Volvo China Open taking place at the Hidden Grace Golf Club in Shenzhen.
The Volvo China Open has returned for the first time since 2019. Jordan Spieth and Sebastian Soderberg were some of the top favorite golfers going into the weekend. With the competition for the Asian Swings Ranking soon coming to an end, leader Soderberg will look to end at the top of the list.
Sebastian Soderberg has currently taken the joint lead of the Volvo China Open alongside Romain Langasque, both carding a score of -9. Speaking about the first day of the Volvo China Open, Soderberg said via the DP World Tour:
"Really solid off the tee, you have to be pretty good off the tee because trouble lurks everywhere. Put myself in good positions, hit a lot of good wedge shots and scored well on the par fives, so felt solid."
Li Haotong is currently sitting in sole third place, while Julien Guerrier, Guido Migliozzi and Gordan Brixi are in joint fourth place at the 2024 Volvo China Open.
