Min Woo Lee, the professional golfer, suffered a broken right ring finger after dropping a 20-pound dumbbell on it during a gym session last Saturday, 10 days ago. Despite the injury, Lee has made a 'miraculous' recovery, managing to play 9 holes without pain and is set to participate in the upcoming Masters tournament. This incident adds to the challenges faced by the Australian contingent at the Masters, with Cam Smith also recovering from a stomach bug.

It hasn't been the perfect build up to the Masters for some some of the Australian contingent; Cam Smith is recovering from a stomach bug and Min Woo Lee has a broken finger. @JeKearsley #9News https://t.co/Y0GX1DLLI0

Oh man. Min Woo Lee broke his right ring finger last Saturday, 10 days ago. Dropped a 20-pound dumbell on it on his last rep. He says his recovery has been "miraculous" and he was able to play 9 holes today without pain. But that's some seriously tough timing.
