Home player Ashun Wu completed a hugely popular victory at the 2015 China Open on Sunday at the Tomson Shanghai Pudong Golf Club.

Wu finished nine under par for the tournament, one shot ahead of England's David Howell, who bogeyed the last in unfortunate fashion.

Alexander Levy, the 2014 champion, put up a gallant defence of his title but eventually finished in a tie for third in a competitive tournament.

Read on for updates of how the action played out in China at this prestigious event.

 

Day 4 Recap

Wu posted a solid one-under round of 71, with birdies on the fifth and the 10th to finish nine under for the tournament, with Howell following him in the final group.

Howell looked to have missed his opportunity on 17, but an impressive up and down kept him in contention. He needed a birdie for the win on 18 or a par to force a playoff.

However, poor approach play on the last left Howell hamstrung, and he had to settle for a bogey on 18, which handed Wu the title and the China Open its first home winner.

Here's the leaderboard after an entertaining tournament:

Howell had looked the more likely winner for most of Sunday, but two dropped shots on the back nine proved to be his downfall.

Argentina's Emiliano Grillo looked to be making a late bid for victory as he went five under for his final round—and nine under for the tournament—after 15 holes on Sunday.

But a double-bogey five on the par-three 17th was a hammer blow for the youngster, and he had to settle for a tie for third. 


Prom Meesawat also finished seven under par after a final round of 71, tying with defending champion Levy, whose double bogey on eight blotted a final-round 73.
