Min Woo Lee is an Australian golfer from Perth, Western Australia, ranked inside the world top 30, with victories on both the European Tour and PGA Tour. He is the younger brother of Minjee Lee, the two-time LPGA major champion, making them one of the most accomplished sibling pairs in professional golf.
Lee’s game is defined by length off the tee and a fearless approach to risk. He won the 2021 Scottish Open at The Renaissance Club, beating Thomas Detry and Matthew Fitzpatrick in a playoff, a victory that announced him to the global golf audience at age 22. He added European Tour wins at the 2020 Vic Open and has been a consistent presence near the top of leaderboards on the PGA Tour since earning his card. His driving distance puts him among the longest hitters on tour, and he pairs that power with an increasingly refined short game that makes him dangerous on any course setup.
Growing up in Perth, Lee and his sister trained together at Royal Fremantle Golf Club, and the competitive dynamic between siblings clearly sharpened both players. Minjee won the U.S. Women’s Open in 2022 and the Evian Championship in 2021; Min Woo has spoken openly about using her success as motivation. His athleticism extends beyond golf; he played Australian rules football as a junior and brings that physical confidence to his swing. At 25, he is entering the prime competitive years for a modern tour professional, and the major championship record remains a blank page he is keen to fill.
In 2026, Lee’s power and versatility suit every venue on the major calendar. Augusta National rewards the long hitter who can also finesse wedge shots into elevated greens. Aronimink will play long enough to favor his distance advantage. Shinnecock Hills demands accuracy that his maturing game is beginning to deliver. Royal Birkdale offers the kind of firm, fast links conditions he experienced at the Scottish Open. He will compete at all four: The Masters, PGA Championship, U.S. Open, and The Open Championship.
