Min Woo Lee spoke about his interaction with fans on Saturday. He said that while walking to the 18th hole, he gave high fives to 50-100 fans and his hands started to feel weird. Which is why he did not do that on Sunday. As quoted by thewest.com.au, he said:

"I was pretty mature about when to do it and when not. On Saturday I high-fived 50-100 people and my hand felt a little weird on 18, so I didn't do that. I knew I had a few shot buffer and my chipping and putting was on point."

The 25-year-old golfer also explained the chef hat and shirts celebration. He added that he looked up to other Australian stalwarts such as Adam Scott and hoped that he could win for the upcoming generations.

"The chef hats and shirts were a new thing. It's one of the best places to play, the supporters are unreal. I was looking up to Scotty (Adam Scott) and those big Australian names, hopefully, I can do it for the kids coming up," Lee said.

Min Woo Lee earned a paycheck of €204,636.48 (approximately $224,066.71) for winning the Australian PGA Championship.
