Min Woo Lee

Two Aussies in top three at Players Champs as course record smashed, epic ace stuns.

He picked up a brilliant chip-in birdie on the 17th to card a two-under 70, moving him to six-under overall in a tie for 14th - but still eight shots off the lead. But things tailed off from there, with a bogey on the par-three 13th and par-five 16th. But when the third round action began there was disaster for the overnight leader, American underdog Chad Ramey. He ended up with a quadruple bogey seven on the iconic Island Green 17th hole, falling off the lead quickly. It was the second ace of the weekend at the Island Green, the first time that has ever happened in tournament history. Great attitude, as well, which I think is just as powerful as his game. It was a remarkable turnaround after hitting an opening-round 78. He concluded his brilliant back nine with a birdie on the 18th to card a five-under 67, putting him four shots behind Scheffler and two behind his countryman Lee. A stunning 15 players shot five-under 67s or better, including a new course record 10-under 62. His eagle was a brilliant chip-in, and he continued his strong day with pars until the 17th, where he managed a birdie to move to four under for the round and nine under overall. Lee added a clutch 34-foot par for birdie on the fourth, picked up another birdie on the sixth, and nailed the par-five ninth hole to pick up another birdie on the back of his exceptional iron play. His tee shot on the 11th found the bunker, but he somehow still managed to pick up a birdie on the par-five hole, and continued his brilliant run the following hole with yet another birdie.

The younger brother of two-time women's major winner Minjee was only an 11th hour addition to golf's unofficial fifth major.

Aaron Baddeley (+3) was the other Australian to make the cut, which claimed Rory McIlroy and Matt Fitzpatrick. I like to have fun and interact with the fans when I can. “Tomorrow could be the biggest day of my life, but I’m going to go out there and have fun again,” he said. I’m really looking forward to keep pushing tomorrow and keep doing what I’ve been doing and hopefully some more birdies drop.” “I felt like I got just about everything I could have out of that round,” Davis said. Scott (+6) posted a five-over 77 in the third round and will be in the first group out in the final round as he fine tunes his preparation for Augusta National.

Min Woo Lee shot himself into contention at the Players Championship, courtesy of an eagle at the par-4 first at TPC Sawgrass.

“I’m really looking forward to keep pushing tomorrow and keep doing what I’ve been doing and hopefully some more birdies drop.” Lee snuck into the Players Championship via the top 50 on the world rankings, which he did at the Honda Classic recently. “I definitely feel like I had the potential to be out here. “I had 112 in, I had a 55 [degree wedge]. The eagle took Lee to eight under par and lurking high on the leaderboard. Lee, on tournament debut, will play in the final group with world No.2 Scheffler.

Australian golf aces Min Woo Lee and Cam Davis are second and third respectively heading into the final round of the $US25 million Players Championship.

He entered this week's $US25 million event ranked 50th in the world and needs to be in the top 50 at April 2 to book his ticket to Augusta National. Lee ignited his round with a hole-out eagle two from the fairway at the first and never looked back. At 10 under and in outright third, Sydneysider Davis is also doing is utmost to keep the trophy in Australian hands in the absence of suspended defending champion Cameron Smith.

That said, some people are genuinely trying to help. That's what Players Championship contender Min Woo Lee found out on Thursday when, in the middle of a ...

"I didn't have it, pickle juice, but I had a lot of coconut water and a lot of electrolytes after that. "I didn't really know what pickle juice did, but everyone on [social] media just said have pickle juice," he said. Went back, and yeah, it's -- so I wanted to stop what I was taking and what I was eating and electrolytes was one of those things. Lee explained them on Saturday night at TPC Sawgrass, where he had just shot a third-round 66 to get into Sunday's final group with Scottie Scheffler. Lee, brilliantly, leaned all the way into it and got out ahead of the joke. Giving into the know-it-all trolls is exactly what the know-it-all trolls want.

Scheffler is looking for win No. 6 in his first 97 starts on the PGA Tour.

He's been the third-best iron player in the field on a golf course that is extremely demanding of it. He has the skill to do so, but Sunday is going to be a 300-level class from Scheffler in how to close out a golf tournament. He'll go into Sunday's finale with perhaps more momentum than anyone following a birdie-eagle-birdie end to his third round (that eagle was an ace on the 17th), but I don't think he has the firepower to roll with Scheffler, Davis, Fleetwood and Lee over the last 18 holes. He has the engine to chase down Scheffler as long as Scheffler doesn't shoot something in the 60s, but Fleetwood has sometimes struggled to close out big time wins. Hoge made the cut on the number before going out and shooting the course record on Saturday in Round 3. Sungjae Im (-8): I don't know that Im, who is six back of Scheffler's lead, is actually in contention here, but he's hitting the ball well this week. He's third in the field from tee to green through three rounds, and this is among the better spots he's been in to capture what would be a signature win at TPC Sawgrass. According to Data Golf, Fleetwood's expected win rate has dropped across all final rounds in which he entered inside the top five (where he'll be on this Sunday). I think he's going to be a star out here on the PGA Tour in the coming years." He has "had an awesome week but won't have the battery to run down Scheffler down the stretch" written all over him, but if you're interested in some stock, I bought a ton after Cam Davis (-10): Davis is a low-key stud who is hitting the hell out of the golf ball this week and cruised to a 67 on Saturday. Lee is a menace who won't be afraid of going against Scheffler in the final pairing.

Australian golf aces Min Woo Lee and Cam Davis are second and third respectively heading into the final round of the $38 million Players Championship.

It has not seemed to hinder him since, however. Lee ignited his third round with a hole-out eagle two from the fairway at the first and never looked back. The 24-year-old from WA led for much of the day before a three-putt bogey on the last and a birdie for Scheffler (65) earned the American sole possession of the lead at 14-under.

After barely qualifying for The Players, Min Woo Lee has earned himself a spot in Sunday's final pairing at TPC Sawgrass.

So, yeah, I'm just out here enjoying my time, and like I said, I just crept into this tournament and making the most of it and soaking it all in.” I like to have fun and interact with the fans when I can. “Tomorrow could be the biggest day of my life, but I'm going to go out there and have fun again,” Lee said. “I mean it's one of the biggest regular season events, and it's obviously considered the fifth major, and it would have been guttering to come 51st in the ranking and not get in,” Lee said. Things did favor in my way, and you got to make the most of it. “And I managed to hit like 99% of a perfect putt.

Davis, who shot a five-under for the day, has been on the PGA Tour since 2018 and has won one title - the Rocket Mortgage Classic in 2021. Birdies followed for Lee on the 15th and 16th but a bogey on the final hole of the day meant he slipped a further shot behind Scheffler. One shot back is Lee on 12-under, who has never won a PGA Tour event and is making his debut at the Players Championship.

Min Woo Lee might be better known as the brother of U.S. Women's Open champion Minjee Lee, but that could change Sunday.

The cutoff for the top 50 in the Official World Rankings to qualify for the Players was after the Honda and he would have had no other way into the field. If they secure enough FedEx Cup points to place inside the top 125 at the end of the season, they earn membership for the following season. Things did favor in my way, and you got to make the most of it.” “I definitely feel like I had the potential to be up there. 47 in the world, the finish ended up bumping him down to exactly No. Had Lee shot 67 on Sunday and finished T28, he wouldn’t have earned enough points to stay ahead of Lucas Herbert and would have fallen to No. While Lee entered the week at No. [and after a 66](https://golf.com/news/players-golf-weirdest-week-2023/), Lee is two shots off the lead of Scottie Scheffler at 12 under, but [the only purser within three shots of the World No. He has clocked 190 mph or faster ball speed 13 times this week and leads the field in driving distance on all tee shots. He was victorious at the 2020 ISPS Handa Vic Open in his home country of Australia. Those finishes have him third in the tour’s Race to Dubai standings. When Min Woo won the 2016 U.S.

Min and Cam Davis sit second and third going into the final day in Florida with golf's biggest purse on the line.
