When the time’s right, it will come.”Ĭolonial is a par-70 and relatively short, meaning Lee will put the driver away somewhat this week. I know it’s all part of it, and it’s going to be, I guess, hopefully a long journey, and hopefully I can just rise up the ranks just one by one. I have the ability to play well, and I’m still trying to eliminate the bad stuff. If I can get that better, I know I can compete. I still was nearly ranked like bottom 10 of approach play (at Oak Hill), and I still ended up coming in 18th. With my youngness, I think I will just learn from experience and get better. “I think obviously that’s just how golf is. As for Block, his final-day hole in one at the PGA Championship has made him a household name in golf.Īlready a two-time winner on the DP World Tour, Lee acknowledges that he is a work in progress.

“Obviously the bigger picture is to get a full card, but it’s nice to tick that off,” Lee told media this week. It is a nice little short-cut option and very much within Lee’s reach now that the usual limit of seven sponsor’s tickets for non-members has been waived after he finished inside the top 20 at last weekend’s PGA Championship at Oak Hill. But Lee still has two majors to play as well as whatever invitations he picks up between now and August. The 24-year-old Lee now has unlimited sponsors’ invitations for the rest of this season in America, which is quite something for a boy from Perth who dreamed of playing on the biggest stage.īut in the longer term the Royal Fremantle product is looking to secure his playing rights for the full 2024 season on the PGA Tour, and to do that, he needs to play well enough to finish the season with more Fedex Cup points than the 125 th-ranked player, just as Cameron Smith did when he played his way on to the tour in 2014.Ĭurrently he has accumulated 190 points the 125th-ranked player, Harry Higgs, is on 204 points.
