Min Woo Lee held off a back-nine charge from Scottie Scheffler and an impressive finish from Rory McIlroy to claim a breakthrough PGA Tour title at the Texas Children’s Houston Open.

Lee took a four-shot lead into the final day and briefly saw his lead increase to five strokes at Memorial Park Golf Course, with three birdies in a five-hole stretch around the turn keeping him in control of the tournament.

The Australian remained three ahead until a bogey par-five 16th cut his lead to one, as Scheffler and Gary Woodland set the clubhouse target at 19-under, only for Lee to par his final two holes to card a three-under 67 and hold onto a one-shot victory.
