Min Woo Lee is rapidly becoming one of the most must-watch players on the PGA Tour, with the Australian winning stateside for the first time at the Texas Children’s Houston Open this past week.

While Min Woo Lee is still awaiting the moment he wins one of the sport’s biggest prizes, there is no question that the 26-year-old is one of the most popular stars around right now, with the way Lee plays the game.

It appears entirely possible that Lee would be the player that many fans would love to play alongside. He has buckets of charisma, while he is always box office to watch whether he is playing well or not.

But which players would Lee particularly love to play alongside?

Min Woo Lee names Tiger Woods and two others in his dream foursome

Speaking to Golf Digest in a Q&A, Lee was asked which players would make up his dream foursome.

Some may have expected Adam Scott or Jason Day to get a mention, especially given how close he has become to his countrymen over the last few years.

But of course, it is no surprise that he opted for Tiger Woods and Rory McIlroy. Meanwhile, Jack Nicklaus completed the quartet.

Lee was also asked about the time he was most starstruck. And, once again, the 15-time major champion received a mention.

“When I met Tiger Woods at the Sage Valley Junior Invitational when I was about 17,” he replied.

The other sport Tiger Woods could play professionally

Of course, Woods has arguably been the most important figure golf has had since Nicklaus was around his peak and battling with the likes of Arnold Palmer and Gary Player. But it seems that the 49-year-old has been backed to thrive at another sport.

In another of the questions, Lee was asked which PGA Tour player would be best placed to turn professional in another sport. And intriguingly, the youngster opted for Woods.

“Tiger Woods, he could be a quarterback probably,” he said.

There is obviously something about the best golfers being able to take their greatness into other sports. It has been suggested that Scottie Scheffler is good enough to play pickleball professionally.

It, unfortunately however, seems a lot more likely that Scheffler will be able to move across to pickleball at some stage than Woods turning up in the NFL anytime soon.
