Minjee Lee Chases Career Grand Slam at Women's Open Wales

News summary

The AIG Women's Open at Royal Porthcawl in Wales is a significant event this year, marking the first time the championship is held in Wales and attracting 144 top golfers, including Welsh native Darcey Harry who finds competing on her home course both thrilling and nerve-racking. Australian golfer Minjee Lee is a key contender, aiming to become the eighth woman to complete a career grand slam by winning her first Women's British Open, the only major title she has yet to secure. Lee, currently fifth-ranked on the Women's PGA, has already won three majors including the recent Women's PGA Championship, and views the challenging links course at Porthcawl as a true test of skill with its long rough, deep bunkers, and blind shots. The tournament features a record nine Australian players, with Lee and Hannah Green seen as veterans who contribute to a golden era for Australian women’s golf. The course's modifications and coastal conditions have been noted by players like world No. 1 Nelly Korda, making strategic play crucial. Meanwhile, Harry, who has trained at Royal Porthcawl for six years, welcomes the opportunity to compete alongside inspiring players and appreciates the strong support for women's golf at the event.
