(Reuters) - Defending champion Minjee Lee of Australia enters this week's Amundi Evian Championship in France in top form and without the pressure she carried on her shoulders a year ago before winning the first major of her career.

Lee secured her breakthrough major victory at last year's Evian Championship where she began the final round seven shots back but fired a closing 64 and then beat overnight leader Jeongeun Lee6 in a sudden-death playoff to secure the win.
