Australia’s Min Woo Lee wowed the golfing public with a great performance yesterday, taking a four-shot lead at the Houston Open. The 26-year-old Australian took the lead after carding a 63 in the third round.
The young golfer played a great round, with seven birdies and no bogeys; new record of the tournament.
In an interview with the media, Lee stressed that he hopes for an equally superior day and today, having the desire to remain focused and calm as of now.
There is no doubt that the 26-year-old is under a lot of pressure, but matches like this will be a great experience for him, especially if he celebrates.
The advantage Lee has could guarantee success, but of course, in golf, we have witnessed various scenarios many times.
“Hopefully tomorrow is another good day,” said Lee, as quoted by BBC.
“Similar golf [to win]. Just got to play pretty steady off the tee.
A couple shaky drives at the end but kind of regrouped and made it happen. Just keeping my head down and one shot at a time.”
Scottie Scheffler
The man on whom the greatest attention was focused, and the golfer who had the lead at one point, is now facing problems.
Scottie Scheffler is currently 12 under, and will have a challenging task in the final round.
In an interview with the media, the American pointed out that yesterday was not a great day for him, unlike the day before.
The 28-year-old admits that he doesn’t want to analyze or think too much about this round, aware that the best answer is to play well today.
“Yesterday I holed a bunch of putts, today I feel like I couldn’t get the ball to go in the hole,” Scheffler said. “Feel like I hit a lot of good putts.
There’s not really much you can do different out there. Try to shoot as low as possible today and I’m going to try to do the same thing tomorrow.”- he concluded.
