The Players Championship

March 2021

Lee tees up at Sawgrass, Florida once again. He last played here in 2017 when he finished T65th. His best finish so far was T4th in 2010.

He plays with Louis Oosthuizen and Robert MacIntyre for the first two rounds teeing off at 6.56 (local time) from the 1st on Thursday and 12.16 from the 10th on Friday. He made 5 birdies and two bogeys and was 3 under for the round, finishing T6th.

In the second bogey-free round he finished with 6 birdies which saw him finish 9 under par and taking a one shot lead into the third day.

Joining Matthew Fitzpatrick, Lee teed off at 2.00pm on Saturday. He made par on the front nine but proceded to make birdies at 10,12,16 and 17 for a round of 68. He takes a two shot lead over DeChambeau going in to the last day.

They had a 1.50 tee-time for the final round. Lee managed 4 bogeys and 4 birdies, which meant that he went round in par. Justin Thomas shot a 4-under 68 and won Lee by one stroke.

He said "I didn't have my game today, I don't know what it was. Yesterday I felt my legs were getting a bit tired and weak and today I felt like I didn't have my legs under me. It's just something to work on"

"Slightly disappointed that I didn't win but you can't be too wanting after a second place finish in THE PLAYER'S CHAMPIONSHIP.  It's something positive to take into next week at The Honda Classic".

 "I've got a fun couple of days coming up, I'm going to play Augusta with my son Sam. Tomorrow's going to be a good Monday!"
