Golf: Lee still doing well

Danny Lee in action during the Crowne Plaza Invitational tournament at Colonial in Texas at the weekend.

Rotorua golfer Danny Lee has continued his fine run of form on the PGA Tour with a top-10 finish at the Crowne Plaza Invitational at Colonial in Texas.

He finished at nine-under par for the tournament which was good enough to give him a share of 10th place. The result is Lee's third top-25 finish in his last four starts. It is also his second best finish this season on the world's toughest golf tour. His best finish was a tied-third place in November at the OHL Classic at Mayakoba.

Lee shot rounds of 66, 69, 70 and a final round 66 yesterday morning to move into the top 10. He was only three shots back from the winner Chris Kirk (USA) who finished at 12-under. Heading into the tournament Lee was 56th on the FedEx Cup standings.
