Minjee Lee

Ten strokes behind at the halfway point of the 2021 Amundi Evian Championship - and still seven adrift of Jeongeun Lee6 with 18 holes to go - Minjee Lee came up with a seven-under 64 to force a play-off before winning her maiden major title at the first extra hole.

It came just two weeks after her younger brother Min Woo Lee captured the Scottish Open.

They are both former US Junior champions and as an amateur Minjee reached world number one and led Australia to victory in the Women’s World Amateur Team Championship, finishing second leading individual behind Brooke Henderson.

Minjee claimed the US Women's Open title in June 2022 for her second major victory, and was joint runner-up in the KPMG Women's PGA Championship, a stroke behind In Gee Chun, three weeks later.

She beat Alison Lee on the first hole of a play-off to win the BMW Ladies Championship in South Korea in October 2023.

Minjee produced a career low 62 in the final round of the 2025 Hilton Grand Vacations Tournament of Champions in February to earn a share of fourth place.

Her best finish at the AIG Women's Open is third, at Royal Troon in 2020, but she has finished in the top five in three of the last five years, including a tie for fourth at Muirfield in 2022.
