Min Woo Lee finished third in Spain last week and seems to have held on to his form with an opening 5-under 66 for a share of the lead in the Estrella Damm N.A. Andalucía Masters.
“Last week I just didn’t have the focus in the last six holes, but looking at the positive sides I played wonderful for those first 60-something holes.
“I love this course, I love the vibes here so just want to keep it going. I feel good about this course. The toughness of it (suits me). I have a really good short game around here, something about the grass, I guess. Made up and down a few times.
“It frees up my iron play and long game. Some drives are pretty tough into the wind but if you can get it somewhere in play you can make birdies.”
Also in the lead are Spain’s Pep Angles, England’s David Horsey, Thailand’s Jazz Janewattananond as well as a bogey-free Søren Kjeldsen.

“I felt I was playing well coming into today, but to go bogey-free round this place is a bit of magic. You don’t expect that – you expect to be punished at some stage. When you don’t get punished you enjoy it while it lasts,” said Kjeldsen.
Scotland’s Robert MacIntyre and Spain’s Adrian Otaegui are tied in sixth place at 4-under.
