The 25-year-old from Perth finished one off the Memorial Park course record to stand on 17-under 193, a 54-hole tournament record.

"Just some solid golf," Lee said. "Been playing really good the last few days. Just keep my head down."

Argentina's Alejandro Tosti shot 65 to grab second on 197 with top-ranked Scottie Scheffler, fellow American Ryan Gerard and New Zealand's Ryan Fox on 198.

"I've learned from past experiences and obviously playing with Scottie the past few years, in the final group in a couple tournaments," Lee said.

Lee, with his first PGA title after three wins on the European Tour.
