Bhatia In Early Hunt At East Lake After 65 As Min Woo Lee Sets Pace
Australian Min Woo Lee: Akshay Bhatia put himself in the early mix for honours at the Tour Championship with a composed five-under 65, while Australian Min Woo Lee stole the show with a stunning course-record-equalling 62 in the opening round here.
Bhatia, the only Indian-origin golfer in the 30-player field, was tied fifth at the end of the day alongside world number one Scottie Scheffler, just three shots behind Lee at the top of the leaderboard.
The 24-year-old Indian-American, backed by Hero, made the most of the soft conditions at East Lake Golf Club, producing seven birdies in an eventful round that also contained two bogeys.
