West Australian Min Woo Lee hopes to cap his maiden year as a professional with one of Australian golf’s most prestigious trophies after a thrilling 4-under 68 put him within striking distance at the Australian PGA Championship on the Gold Coast.

Both Adam Scott and Wade Ormsby have refused to rule two-time defending champion Cameron Smith out of a historic threepeat despite holding a handy buffer at the top of the Australian PGA Championship at RACV Royal Pines Resort.

It’s the position he has craved throughout 2019 and now Adam Scott can end a winless streak stretching back more than three years by holding off a chasing pack at the Australian PGA Championship on the Gold Coast on Sunday.

He traded in range time for sack time and now Cameron Smith’s shot at 112 years of history remains very much alive after he surged up the leaderboard with the equal best round on day two of the Australian PGA Championship.
