2023 AT&T Byron Nelson
PGA Tour
TPC Craig Ranch
McKinney, Texas, USA
11-14 May 2023
K.H. Lee will be determined to emulate golf icon Tom Watson by winning the
AT&T Byron Nelson title for the third time in a row.
What to know about Lee
The South Korean star is an elite golfer who has enjoyed some success on the Japan Golf Tour, OneAsia Tour, Web.com Tour as well as the PGA Tour.
Lee has won six professional tournaments including two PGA events and his best performance in a golf major came at the 2023 Masters Tournament as he finished 23rd.
Latest News
The Seoul-born golfer took park in the recent 2023 Wells Fargo Championship in North Carolina, USA where he finished eighth.
Lee is currently placed 44th in the Official World Golf Rankings (OWGR) and his best ranking is 33rd.
Why Lee is one of the favourites
The 31-year-old will be returning to one of his favourite golf courses, TPC Craig Ranch where he has won back to back AT&T Byron Nelson titles.
Lee won his first title in 2021 with a score of 25-under-par, beating runner-up Sam Burns by three strokes and a year later, he successfully defended his title after shooting 26-under-par; beating Jordan Spieth by one shot.
An eighth spot finish at the 2023 Wells Fargo Championship has surely boosted Lee's confidence coming into the AT&T Byron Nelson.
Quotes
"It's amazing. I can't believe it. Just hopefully people remember my name," Lee said in 2022 after he carded a birdie on the reachable par-5 18th to set the new AT&T Byrpn Nelson scoring record.
"[I changed putters] when I set up not square -- sometimes closed, sometimes open -- a couple months ago. But I tried a big head, two-ball putter that makes it look more square [and] easier to check for when I line up.
"It's more square, and then that's what helped with my stroke."
