Lee finishes 17th

Kiwi golfer Danny Lee climbed 39 places in the final round of the Arnold Palmer Invitational at Bay Hill in Florida yesterday to finish in a six-way tie for 17th. Lee shot a five-under-par 67 on the final day, a score eight shots better than that of his opening round. The Kiwi finished three-under for the tournament, alongside Americans Luke List, Pat Perez, Michael Kim and Kyle Stanley, and Australian Greg Chalmers. It was another Australian who claimed the title, with Marc Leishman booking an 11th-hour Masters berth with a one-shot victory.
