Min Woo Lee penalized one stroke at Masters for ball movement

Min Woo Lee received a one-stroke penalty during the third round of the Masters after officials determined he caused his ball to move on the 13th hole, turning his score from a par to a bogey. This penalty added to his struggles, resulting in a five-over-par 77 for the round and ultimately putting him out of contention in the tournament. Lee expressed frustration over being penalized for slow play, explaining that a 20-minute gap between groups contributed to their timing issues. Despite initially starting strong, Lee faltered on the back nine, with multiple bogeys impacting his overall performance. He remains hopeful for improvement in the final round, emphasizing the importance of learning from the experience. Lee, a rising star in professional golf, had recently celebrated his first PGA Tour victory just weeks prior.
