Minjee Lee and her brother are showcasing sensational performances on the greens

The elder of the Lee siblings, the LPGA star, is currently competing at Baltusrol, one of the most historic and spectacular golf courses, for the KPMG Women’s PGA Championship. The golfer is chasing the third major title of her career, and the kind of performance she is displaying, she might just go all the way at New Jersey.

The 2X major winner’s younger brother, Min Woo Lee, who turned pro in 2019, meanwhile has been an unfamiliar face on the PGA Tour until now. The reason behind that is that he is a full-time member of the DP World Tour, but has now earned a Special Temporary Membership on the PGA Tour.

This weekend, he had some other plans rather than competing at the Traveler’s Championship in Connecticut. But his plans altered when he performed exceptionally well in the US Open the last week and finished tied fifth.

Now, it seems that he is continuing his stellar form, as he is currently in contention at the Travelers Championship being held at TPC River Highlands. The golfer is tied for the T7 spot with a score of 9-under after two rounds, six shots off the pace. The PGA Tour’s official Twitter handle posted an appreciation post for the Lee siblings.

The post quickly garnered a lot of love from fans, and rightfully so! All the love for the siblings is well-deserved!
