His wife Luo Ying has also played golf professionally. (pgatour.com, 05 Apr 2021)

Turned professional in 2018

"I really started playing when I was nine or 10 years old, actually got a coach and had a lesson, and I really liked it. It was more like a hobby but when I was 12 or 13, spent a little more time outside school to play and practise and then I decided to come to the [United] States for high school so I could get more structured training and play a lot more on the course." (pgatour.com, 05 Apr 2021)

"My dad used to play a little bit, so he took me out on the course. In China we have caddies with push carts, and I was so little that I was literally laying on top of the golf bag and the caddie was pushing the push cart with me on it. I'd just hang out with my dad on the course, and then we started going to the range." (pgatour.com, 05 Apr 2021)

"I would say I am a pretty creative golfer. I'm learning to have as many shots as possible in my bag that I can hit so every day I go out on the course in any tournament I'm willing to face any challenge. I know I can have the ability to challenge it or conquer it and it really inspires me to thrive on a hard course. Also, I don't want to say showing off, but I love showing people what I am able to do. I'm not trying to hold any limits on myself, if there's a possibility that I can make a birdie and there's a risk, it's a risk I'm willing to take. I just want to challenge myself to the best possible." (pgatour.com, 05 Apr 2021)

In 2014 he was named Master of Sport by the General Administration of Sport of China. (sport.gov.cn, 26 Mar 2014)
