Perth’s Minjee Lee wins U.S. Girls’ Junior

16-year-old Minjee Lee rallied from three holes down Saturday to beat Alison Lee in the 36-hole final of the U.S. Girls&apos Junior Championship. Minjee Lee held a 1-up lead through the first 18 holes but had fallen 3-down after 30. She won the next three holes, however, going par-birdie-par while Alison Lee went bogey-par-bogey. Minjee Lee won her fourth straight hole, the par-4 16th at Lake Merced Golf Club, after her opponent three-putted for a bogey. She sealed the win with pars on the last two holes.
