Golf originated in Scotland in the 15th century. Early golf was mostly played by princes and nobles. With the popularity and development of golf equipment, golf began to become popular among the middle class. In the 20th century, with the establishment of golf competition rules and systems, international golf competitions were widely developed. In the 1820s, golf was introduced to Asia, and golf was introduced to China in 1896, marking the establishment of the Shanghai Golf Club in China. In 2015, the 21st Volvo China Open ended in Shanghai. Wu Ashun won the championship. This was the first time a Chinese domestic earth player won the European Tour player of the month award.
