Golf: In the second round of THE PLAYERS Championship 2024, Min Woo Lee makes a 60-foot birdie on the par-3 17th hole
Australian golf star Min Woo Lee drained an incredible putt to secure a birdie on the 17th hole as rising star Wyndham Clark opened up a four-stroke lead at the Players Championship.
Xander Schauffele and Canadian Nick Taylor were both four strokes behind Clark, who was on 14-under par 130 after 36 holes at TPC Sawgrass, but world number two Rory McIlroy fell back after shooting a one-over 73. The 30-year-old American has risen from outside the top 100 in the world rankings a year ago to sitting in fifth place heading into this tournament.
His 130 for the opening two rounds is the second-lowest midway total in Players history and his final nine holes on Friday, on the front side, started with four straight birdies and ended with another on the par-5 ninth.‘I was adamant’: Rory in lengthy debate with stars after Players controversyClark, who finished second at Bay Hill last week, rejected the idea that he only truly zones in when it matters most.
