LIV Golf Update: Min Woo Lee Ends All Rumors of Joining Greg Norman and Co.

In the recent past, LIV Golf has successfully managed to take away many top golfers from the PGA Tour, like Jon Rahm. And while the Saudi tour might still have their eyes set on other players like Viktor Hovland and Wyndham Clark, Min Woo Lee was also rumored to be switching, until now.

Lee, however, has no plans on going anywhere. The golfer recently appeared on Golf Digest’s The Loop podcast, where he talked about his brand new partnership with Lululemon and plans to play on American turf only.

Min Woo Lee to continue playing on the PGA Tour only

Playing professionally on the PGA Tour is no piece of cake and Woo Lee had to go through a fair share of hardships to get there. Now, that he is living the dream on PGAT, he revealed in the podcast that he wants to put his sharp focus on this prestigious league only. “My goal was to play in America,” Lee said on record, “I just tried to do my best and try to get my card. And now I really didn’t want to go anywhere else.”

He also explained that getting here from the DP World Tour was a big step. He added, “Going up to the American tour on the PGA Tour. I was really excited about that.” Moreover revealing his plans he also expressed that he is enthralled to play against top-world players and hopes to make the game interesting enough for the upcoming generation.

He continued, “I’m really excited again to play on the American Tour and play against the best in the world. There’s a lot of names that left and which sucks, I guess for golf, but that’s why I’m trying to step in and make it fun for kids and other guys starting golf.” Having finally earned the recognition on the PGAT Lee will continue his adventures there only.

The Greg Norman-led league has been successful in acquiring a few big names for itself. The league is still trying to get celebrated PGAT pros to its side, with the most recent one being the 2023 US Open champion, Wyndham Clark. From Lee’s comments, it seems that he is happy on the American Tour, and will not be going anywhere anytime soon! LIV Golf is always on the lookout for fresh talents like Lee, and his recent success makes him an attractive asset for LIV Golf.
