Who is Min Woo Lee?

Min Woo Lee is not just a golfer—he’s an absolute vibe. The Aussie sensation has become one of the most electric personalities in professional golf, blending elite ball-striking with a social media presence that has turned him into a full-blown cult hero. Whether he’s striping drives, showcasing his elite short game, or dropping legendary one-liners on Twitter, Min Woo has built a legion of fans who live by one simple rule: "Let him cook."

Born in Perth, Australia, in 1998, Min Woo was pretty much destined for golfing greatness. His sister, Minjee Lee, is a major champion and one of the most dominant players on the LPGA Tour. Clearly, the golf genes in the Lee household were stronger than a double espresso before a final round. But while Minjee is all business, Min Woo brings a different energy—swagger, flair, and an unmatched ability to make golf look way cooler than it has any right to be.

Min Woo burst onto the scene in 2016 by winning the U.S. Junior Amateur Championship, becoming the first Australian to do so. He turned pro in 2019 and wasted no time making an impact. By 2021, he had already secured a European Tour (now DP World Tour) victory at the Scottish Open, proving that he wasn’t just about trick shots and viral tweets—he could win at the highest level, too.

His game is built on an explosive combination of raw power and ridiculous touch around the greens. While some players panic when faced with a tricky short game shot, Min Woo transforms into his alter ego: Dr. Chipinski. That’s right—the man has given his wedge game a full-on medical degree, and when he gets going, he can get up and down from just about anywhere.

With his charisma, elite skill, and fan-friendly antics, Min Woo Lee is quickly becoming one of golf’s biggest fan favorites. Whether it’s his cheeky social media presence, monster tee shots, or must-watch short game, one thing is for sure: the man knows how to cook.

Min Woo Lee’s Golf Bag & Equipment

Driver: Callaway Elyte Triple Diamond 10.5° – Fujikura Ventus Blue 6X Shaft
Min Woo loves to let the big dog eat, and his driver setup is built for absolute missiles. The Callaway Elyte Triple Diamond 10.5° paired with the Fujikura Ventus Blue 6X shaft gives him the power and stability to launch bombs while still keeping it in play. When Min Woo steps on the tee, fairways are merely a suggestion.

3 Wood: Callaway Elyte Triple Ti HL 16.5° – Fujikura Ventus Blue 9X Shaft
For those tight tee shots or long approach shots into par 5s, Min Woo leans on his Callaway Elyte Triple Diamond HL 3-wood. With a slightly higher loft at 16.5° and the Fujikura Ventus Blue 9X shaft, this club is all about controlled aggression.

Utility: Callaway X-Forged UT 18° (2) – Fujikura Ventus Blue HB 8X Shaft
A hybrid? Absolutely not. Min Woo keeps it old school with a 2-iron, because hybrids are for those who fear commitment. The Callaway X-Forged UT 18° is his go-to weapon when he needs a piercing stinger that makes even Tiger Woods nod in approval.

Irons: Prototype Callaway Apex (4-10) – True Temper Dynamic Gold Tour Issue X100 Shafts
His iron setup is strictly for ball-striking purists. Prototype Callaway Apex irons (4-10) paired with True Temper Dynamic Gold Tour Issue X100 shafts ensure he has the precision and control needed to shape shots on command. If you ever wondered what “dialed-in” looks like, it’s Min Woo flushing a 7-iron.

Wedges: Callaway Opus 50° (10S), Titleist Vokey SM9 56° (14F), WedgeWorks 60° (T) – Nippon Pro Modus 120S Shafts
When Dr. Chipinski steps into the operating room, it’s time for short-game wizardry. With a mix of Callaway Opus and Titleist Vokey SM9 wedges, Min Woo’s short game is a highlight reel waiting to happen.

Putter: Odyssey O-Works 1W
The magic wand. The flatstick. The difference between winning and "what could have been." Min Woo’s Odyssey O-Works 1W putter has helped him roll in clutch putts time and time again.

Ball: Callaway Chrome Tour X
Because every artist needs the perfect canvas.

Grips: Gripmaster
The ultimate connection between man and club.
