Weiwei, a 27-year-old from Hubei, China, has been making waves in the golf world for the past two years. She debuted in 2022 and has since played in 40 LPGA events, making the cut 12 times. One of her standout performances was at the 2022 AmazingCre Portland Classic, where she scored -14 and finished in the top 10. With six top-25 finishes under her belt, Weiwei is steadily making her mark on the LPGA Tour.

Before she hit the big stage, Weiwei was a star in the local circuit. Born in 1997, she picked up golf at the age of 9, thanks to her dad. By 13, she was playing in CLPGA tournaments. Her first win came in 2017 at the Zhuhai Hengqin Phoenix Tree Building Challenge, where she shot a 3-under par 72. Her career kicked into high gear when she turned pro in the same year.

By 2020, Weiwei had won five CLPGA tournaments and participated in the Final Qualifying game of the Crail Golfing Society. She topped the leaderboard, earning her a spot in the AIG Women’s Open. This prestigious event has been won by LPGA pros like Rose Zhang and Atthaya Thitikul.

From 2020 to 2025, Weiwei joined the Epson Tour, making 28 cuts and finishing in the top 10 eight times. Her best performance was at the Prasco Charity Championship in 2021, where she finished second.

Off the course, Weiwei enjoys singing, watching movies, and playing video games. She’s also into photography, as seen on her social media where she shares beautiful landscapes. Her posts often feature her golf achievements, like holding scoreboards and hitting perfect strokes.
