This is the power of Lee Kyung-hoon.
On the 5th (local time), he surged with a 7-under-par in the 4th round of the PGA Tour World Wide Technology Championship (total prize money $8.2 million) held at El Cardonal at Diamante Cabo San Lucas (par 72, 7,452 yards) in Los Cabos, Mexico, climbing to a tie for 54th place (13-under-par 275 strokes). He collected 7 birdies without a single bogey. He missed the fairway and green only once each. His putting average per hole was 1.65. It was disappointing that he finished the previous day in the 50th place range after shooting 1-over-par.
