Matthew Selt was the winner of the now CBSA sanctioned Haining Open tournament in 2016. The event now sanctioned by CBSA wanted to keep the event after the recent demise of the Asian Tour.^[3] Thepchaiya Un-Nooh was the 2019 Haining Open champion.

As a result of travel restrictions brought about by the COVID-19 pandemic, the tournament did not run in the 2020–21 season. The 2021-22 edition of the event was played for Chinese players mostly due to the travel restrictions still being in place.
