Lee essentially locked up the title early, starting with a fine shot into the par-5 first hole with her Srixon ZX 4-hybrid that led to a two-putt birdie. She followed with a 30-plus-footer for birdie with her Scotty Cameron by Titleist Timeless blade putter at the second hole to open up a lead that was never threatened.
Currently ranked fourth on the Rolex Rankings, Lee is delivering on the promise she showed when she was the No.1-ranked amateur in 2014. The US Women’s Open win was the 26-year-old’s eighth LPGA victory and second in the past few weeks, having won the Founders Cup last month.
Still, the victory is a bit of a surprise for the Australian given her track record at the USGA’s marquee women’s championship, where Lee had not recorded a top-10 finish in eight previous starts.
Lee’s iron game was particularly strong at Pine Needles, ranking T-3 in greens in regulation, hitting no fewer than 14 over her first three rounds and 13 on Sunday with her Srixon ZX7 irons with Aerotech SteelFiber i80 stiff shafts with Golf Pride New Decade MCC 60 round grips.
