Lee arrives at Augusta National in superb form, having made the cut in all seven of his PGA Tour appearances this season. Moreover, the Australian ace boasts one runner-up finish, one third-place finish, two top 5s and three top 10s.
He enters The Masters with a T3 finish at the Texas Children’s Houston Open, and will now be eager to continue his fine form at the first major championship of 2026. Before that, however, Lee was tasked with discussing what playing Amen Corner – holes 11, 12 and 13 – is really like. Min Woo Lee really likes the wind at Augusta National for The Masters this year Ahead of his fifth start at the tournament, Lee said in his opening press conference at The Masters : “I think you learn that it’s pretty quiet just around that area.
“You know, every hole has patrons on the left and right. Then when you get to Amen Corner hole 11 doesn’t have anyone on the left so if you’re over there is no one there clapping or talking. “Then same as 12 when you’re out there it’s literally a green by itself and all the patrons are behind on the tee box.
“It’s not normal that there are patrons 200 yards away, or 100, let’s call it 150 yards to the 13 tee box as well. “There is a quiet area there that no one is there and that’s what I learnt when I first came out here, like how nearly deafening because it was just no one. It’s a delayed response when you hole a putt on 12.
