A refreshing break back home in Australia appears to have worked wonders for Min Woo Lee as he launched his bid at the French Open with his old familiar elan in Paris.
Lee had endured a bit of a lean spell ever since his breakthrough PGA Tour win at the Houston Open in March but after a month's break from competition during which he relaxed by watching his beloved Fremantle Dockers in AFL finals action, he's returned to European tour action in fine style.
At the flagship PGA championship at Wentworth over the weekend, he shot 67 and 66 to finish joint-11th, his best performance since Houston, and he carried on in terrific fashion on Thursday with a five-under 66 to lie joint-second after the opening round of the French showpiece at Golf de Saint-Nom-La-Breteche.
