A 400-yard drive was the highlight of a second round that Min Woo Lee used to blast his way into US Open contention alongside Cameron Smith at Los Angeles Country Club.
West Australian Min Woo Lee has maintained his position inside the top 10 on the leaderboard as driving rain made the US PGA Championship challenge at Oak Hill even tougher in Round 3.
Emerging superstar Min Woo Lee is the first player signed on for the $2 million Fortinet Australian PGA Championship to be played at Royal Queensland Golf Club in Brisbane from November 23-26.
The week golf fans have been waiting for has finally arrived and there will be wall-to-wall coverage for everyone to savour as five Australians strive to win the iconic green jacket.
Without looking, we can pretty much guarantee that any tour pro who has ever posted about their Masters invitation on social media has done so in a similar way – by posting a picture of just the invitation and caption-ing it with something along the lines of “Can’t wait to get to Augusta!”
Min Woo Lee leads a seven-strong Australian contingent at the Players Championship having opened the tournament with a four-under-par 68 at TPC Sawgrass.
As for the pressure of trying to lock in a second appearance at Augusta National, Lee is not letting himself look beyond the Players and the WGC–Match Play in two weeks times.
The 2023 Players Championship week has arrived, albeit with the defending champion, Australia’s Cam Smith, not allowed to tee up in the event due to being banned by the PGA Tour for joining LIV Golf. Seven Australians will tee up: Adam Scott, Jason Day, Lucas Herbert, Min Woo Lee, Cam Davis, Aaron Baddeley and Harrison Endycott.
