Min Woo Lee picks Aussie golfer over Rory McIlroy, other PGA Tour stars in unique competition

Rory McIlroy has one of the best swings on the circuit, but Min Woo Lee has chosen his fellow countryman over him. According to Lee, the Australian veteran Adam Scott has the sweetest swing.

Recently, Golf Digest did a fun segment with Min Woo Lee where he ranked his favorite golfers based on their swings. The first thing he did was place his sister, Minjee Lee, in third spot. He then ranked Rory second, followed by Adam Scott at the top.

Nelly Korda and Ludvig Åberg also made it to the top five of Lee's list. Tiger Woods, Bryson DeChambeau, Scottie Scheffler and Lexi Thompson were among the other names in the top 10. Here’s the clip:
