The Players Day 3 Tee Times: Min Woo Lee, Akshay Bhatia share the lead

Min Woo Lee and Akshay Bhatia will be the final group out. Here are the complete Round 3 tee times.

Min Woo Lee and Akshay Bhatia posted a pair of 6-under 66s on Friday to vault to the top of the leaderboard at the 51st Players Championship.

Lee has yet to win on the PGA Tour, with his biggest victory to date being the 2021 Scottish Open. The Aussie defeated Thomas Detry and Matthew Fitzpatrick at The Renaissance Club then and has two other DP World Tour victories to his name.

Bhatia, meanwhile, beat Denny McCarthy in a playoff last year to win the Valero Texas Open. His victory at TPC San Antonio punched his ticket to Augusta National the following week, as Bhatia became the first Drive, Chip, and Putt participant to compete in The Masters.

But a win for either one of these players at TPC Sawgrass would vault them into a different tier on the PGA Tour. They are both young, possess tremendous talent, but have yet to win a big event. That could all change this weekend at TPC Sawgrass.
