Lee claimed his first DP World Tour title in 2020, just a year after turning professional, delighting the home crowd with his victory at
the ISPS HANDA Vic Open. He has gone on to win twice more, including Rolex Series glory in Scotland the following year.

The Perth native sealed his first PGA TOUR title when he edged out World Number One Scottie Scheffler and Major champion Gary Woodland to win the Texas Children’s Houston Open last season.

Lee, who represented Australia at the Paris Olympic Games and the International team at the Presidents Cup in 2024, said: “I love
playing all around the world and I’m excited to tee it up in India for the first time at the DP World India Championship.

“I heard a lot about last year’s tournament, and it’s shaping up to be another incredible field, so I’m looking forward to the whole
experience both on and off the golf course.”

Global smart logistics provider DP World and the DP World Tour launched the $4,000,000 DP World India Championship in 2025.
Co-sanctioned with the DP World Professional Golf Tour of India, the tournament features the largest prize fund ever offered for a DP World
Tour event in India and will once again take its place as part of the crucial Back 9 phase of the Race to Dubai.

The stellar field gathering for the DP World India Championship this October includes Major winners McIlroy, Fox, Shane Lowry and Justin
Rose, European Ryder Cup Captain Luke Donald and Ryder Cup stars Fleetwood and Viktor Hovland, with Shubhankar Sharma and Anirban
Lahiri amongst the Indian stars set to complete the line-up.

Hemant Kumar Ruia, Country Manager, Subcontinent (India), DP World said: “For over three decades, DP World has invested in India,
building the infrastructure and connectivity that help businesses grow, create opportunities, and connect to global markets. The DP
World India Championship reflects that same long-term commitment to supporting talent, fostering ambition and creating platforms for
excellence.

The DP World India Championship will be the eighth of nine events in the Back 9 phase of the 2026 Race to Dubai, building towards the
season-ending DP World Tour Play-Offs and culminating in the DP World Tour Championship in November at Jumeirah Golf Estates in Dubai.
