Danny Lee co-leads the Web.com Tour's WNB Golf Classic through two rounds at 10-under-par 68-66=134.
He and Reid Edstrom hold a one-stroke margin over six in pursuit. Lee entered the week ranked 18th on the money list thanks to four paydays, including a pair of top 10s. He's still just 22 years of age, which is mind-blowing given his pedigree. Thus far at Midland (Tex.) Country Club, he's offset two bogeys with 12 birdies, just four of which on the set of four par 5s. Seventy-seven golfers survived the cut, which fell at 2-under 142. Apr 12 - 8:56 PM

Danny Lee returns to the WNB Golf Classic, where his success over the last two seasons has been second to none.

Lee won the 2011 edition and came back to share second in 2012 behind only Luke Guthrie last September. Lee has also seen his share of early-round leads this year; both in Colombia and Brazil. With his game in form and history established, don’t be surprised if he goes a long way towards earning a 2013-2014 PGA TOUR card this week.

Danny Lee fired a 6-under-par 33-32=65 in the second round of the Brasil Classic for the second consecutive day and will sleep on the lead at 12-under 130.

The second round was unable to finish on Friday, but Lee's 12-under total has him two clear of first round co-leader Richard S. Johnson, while Johnson still has seven holes to complete. Lee circled eight birdies to just two bogeys in his second lap around Sao Paulo Golf Club. All signs point to him not dropping down the leaderboard like he did in Colombia after an early lead.

Danny Lee spun a bogey-free 6-under-par 31-34=65 in the opening round of the Brasil Classic to share the lead with Tom Hoge and Richard S. Johnson.

This is the second time this season that Lee has owned a share of an 18-hole lead on the Web.com Tour, holding the lead by himself at 7-under at the Colombia Championship. That week, he went on to finish in a tie for 44th and failed to break 70 the rest of the tournament. His round today featured four birdies in his first six holes and included birdies on three of the par 5s.

Danny Lee fired a 7-under-par 33-31=64 in the opening round of the Colombia Championship to take a one-stroke lead over Sam Saunders and Shane Bertsch.

Lee limped out of the gates with a bogey on his second hole. He would even his round with a birdie at the fourth before catching fire on the eighth hole and rattling off four consecutive birdies. After a string of four pars, he finished his day withe birdies on the last three holes. Already a winner on the Web.com Tour, he is back on Tour this year after an unsuccessful stint on the PGA TOUR in 2012.

Danny Lee carded a 4-under-par 34-34=68 at El Camino Country Club in Oceanside, Calif. in today's open qualifier for the Farmers Insurance Open, finishing two strokes too high to force a playoff for the final two spots into the tournament proper.

Lee was bidding to go 2-for-2 on the OQ circuit this year. He parlayed his success the Monday prior to the Sony Open into a T13 at Waialae. Others that failed to qualify in a Who's Who at El Camino include: 68--Vaughn Taylor ... 69--Edward Loar ... 70--Gary Christian; Russell Knox; Duffy Waldorf; Kent Jones; Alex Aragon ... 71--Heath Slocum; Jeff Hart ... 72--Cameron Beckman; Craig Barlow; Troy Merritt; Michael Putnam; J.J. Killeen; Kevin Tway ... 73--Chris Riley; Ted Purdy; Chris Smith; Jerod Turner ... 74--Billy Mayfair; Jason Gore; Matt Bettencourt; Alex Cejka; Esteban Toledo; Stephen Gangluff ... 75--Lee Janzen; Parker McLachlin ... 76--Jamie Lovemark; Jason Allred ... 77--Robin Freeman; Jeff Quinney ... 78--Brendon Todd; Rich Beem; Bio Kim.

Danny Lee continues to sign his name to 4-under-par 66s on the scorecard, as each of his first three rounds of the Sony Open have resulted in the same score to reach the 54-hole mark at 12-under 198.

In his third lap around Waialae Country Club, he would go out in bogey-free 3-under 32 before coming home in 1-under 34 with two birdies and a bogey. He failed to take advantage of the par-5 18th after a poor drive eventually led to a 12'6" birdie attempt that would burn the edge. While he will set his sights on a win tomorrow, a top 10 would gain him entry into the Farmers Insurance Open in two weeks.

Danny Lee followed his opening 66 at the Sony Open in Hawaii with another in his second round to reach the midpoint in 8-under 132.

Lee continues to make the most of his opportunity via the open qualifier this week. He hit 12 greens and rolled in four birdies and an eagle to offset a pair of bogeys. His most impressive birdies disappeared from 15'1" and 16'4" at the 10th and 16th holes, respectively, but the eagle was magnificent, falling in from 57'1" at the par-5 ninth. At the time he signed his card, he sat six strokes behind the 36-hole clubhouse leader.

Danny Lee carded a 4-under-par 35-31=66 in his opening round of the Sony Open in Hawaii.

The medalist at this week's open qualifier hit 14 greens and buried six birdies to finish as the last of 16 inside the top 10 on the leaderboard. He opened with a 26'9" birdie conversion at the first hole, but then needed par saves to drop from just outside 10 feet at holes 4 and 7 to keeep his round afloat. After making the turn in even par, he rolled in his second birdie of the day from 12'6" at the 10th, and then would chased it with four more coming in. That late run included birdies measuring 18'8" and 37'7" at the 13th and 15th holes, respectively. Lee was a PGA TOUR rookie in 2012 but finished 166th on the money list. He has no status in 2013.

En route to medalist honors at today's open qualifier for the Sony Open in Hawaii, Danny Lee carded a 7-under-par 31-34=65 on the Arnold Palmer Course at Turtle Bay in Kahuku.

The 2012 PGA TOUR rookie opened with a bogey-5 but played out the string in bogey-free 8-under with an eagle and six birdies. Fifty-four-year-old Russ Cochran was the runner-up at 5-under 33-34=67; he erased one bogey with six birdies. The lefty will be making his 19th appearance at Waialae, but it'll be his first since 2004. Thanks to four birdies against only one bogey, Steven Alker grabbed third place outright at 3-under 34-35=69. The final berth into the tournament proper went to Josh Persons (bogey-free, 2-under 35-35=70), who outlasted Tim Wilkinson (34-36=70), Stephen Hale (32-38=70) and Steven Lecuyer (37-33=70) in a playoff. The final four spots in the 144-man field at Waialae will be filled by sponsor exemptions.

Danny Lee enjoyed a 5-under-par 30-35=65 in his opening round of The McGladrey Classic, finishing one stroke off the clubhouse lead.

Lee entered his rookie year with considerable hype, but he's 167th on the money list entering the penultimate event of 2012, and that includes a season-best T16 at last week's Frys.com Open. Perhaps going for broke, he came flying out of the gates today, converting three birdies and an eagle to reach 5-under after only seven holes. That stretch included a par save from 12'3" at the second hole and birdies from 27'10" and 17'10" at 4 and 6, respectively. His eagle found the cup from just 11'5" at the par-5 seventh. His lone birdie coming in measured 12'7" at 11. Overall, he split 13 (of 14) fairways and hit 15 greens in regulation.

Danny Lee signed for a 4-under-par 31-36-67 in the third round of the Frys.com Open, reaching the 54-hole mark at 10-under 203.

Lee's ride was a wild one, as he circled six birdies and squared two bogeys to just one par on his outward nine. After five pars to start the back, he made a bogey at the reachable par-5 15th before a sandie at the par-4 17th equalized his inward nine. In all, he hit 15 GIR but needed 30 putts to navigate CordeValle Golf Club. Entering the week 169th on the money list, he will go for his first top 10 of the season in Sunday's finale.

Danny Lee concluded his opening round of the Reno-Tahoe Open with 10 points.

The rookie hit 15 greens in regulation and erased two bogeys with six birdies to finish 4 points back of the clubhouse lead. Lee has cashed in just half of his 20 starts this year and arrived in Reno ranked 156th in FedExCup points.

Danny Lee was disqualified from the AT&T National following his second round for signing an incorrect scorecard.

He turned in rounds of 78 and 71 to reach the midpoint in 7-over 148, which is immediately below the cut line, so he wouldn't have played on anyway. Strangely enough, his only failure to cash in his previous eight starts also resulted in a DQ a Quail Hollow.

Danny Lee is in the field at AT&T National by way of a sponsors exemption, and he's looking to record his first top 10 of the season.

Lee seems to be in decent form, as he's cashed a check in seven of his last eight events with the lone miss a DQ. If he could stand to improve anywhere, it would be in relation to his accuracy. He is 139th in driving accuracy and 130th in GIR. He last played at Congressional in this event in 2009 where he tied for seventh.
