Birthday girl Minjee Lee is pinning her faith in a "pistol-grip" putter and trusty caddy as she shoots for redemption and the biggest pay day in women's golf.
Lee and world No.8 Hannah Green will spearhead a seven-strong Australian challenge at the 80th Women's US Open starting on Thursday at famed and formidable Erin Hills near Milwaukee.
The winner will pocket a cheque for US$2.4 million from the overall $US12 million purse but money can't buy the feeling of getting her hands on the trophy like Lee did three years ago.
