Minjee Lee kept the youth movement going in the women’s game Saturday with her victory at the Lotte Championship in Hawaii.

Lee’s triumph marked the third in a row for LPGA teenagers this year.

Lee, 19, won on the heels of back-to-back victories by 18-year-old Lydia Ko.

How young are this year’s LPGA winners through nine events?

If you’re a 21-year-old on tour, you’re old. Well, you’re older than the average winner this season. The average winner is 20.8 years old.

Ha Na Jang was 23 years, 10 months and 4 days old when she won the HSBC Women’s Champions last month.
