The golf world is watching Min Woo Lee, a young talent from Australia. He's on the edge of something big. He's leading the Houston Open after a fantastic third round. Lee shot a seven-under-par 63, which is impressive. He didn't drop a single shot above par all day. This put him ahead by four shots going into the final round.

Lee had a long day. He finished his second round in the morning and then started his third round later that day. Despite the long day, he managed to stay focused and play brilliantly. He even joked about needing more rest and warm-ups to keep up this level of play.

Lee has been close to winning before. He finished sixth in the 2023 Players Championship and fifth in the 2023 US Open. This season, he's shown flashes of his potential, like his tie for 20th at the Players Championship. But a win on the PGA Tour has been elusive. He's had 55 starts without a victory.

Scottie Scheffler, who was leading after the second round, had a tough day. He shot an eight-under 62 in the second round, but couldn't keep up the pace. He's now tied for third, along with Ryan Gerard and Ryan Fox. Alejandro Tosti is just one shot behind them in second place.

Lee knows the final round will be tough. He's hoping for a good night's rest to prepare. He'll tee off at 1:01pm ET on Sunday. It's a big moment for Lee. He's got the talent, but can he turn it into a win? The golf world will be watching to find out.
