Min Woo Lee has regained his status as Australia's top-ranked men's golfer after falling painfully short of capturing his maiden Signature title on the PGA Tour in a thrilling finale at the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am.
Lee surged home with a final-round seven-under-par 65 to claim the clubhouse lead before good friend and two-time major winner Collin Morikawa pipped him by a shot.
The American birdied to last hole amid great tension to finish at 22 under for the tournament and walk off with the $US3.6 million ($A5.1 million) winner's cheque.
