At 21, Brooke Henderson already has eight wins on the LPGA Tour.
Winning the Lotte Championship in Ko Olina, Oahu, HI for the second year in a row, Henderson tied Sandra Post, Mike Weir and George Knudson for most wins by a Canadian on the LPGA or PGA tour.
“It’s really amazing to get this win and tie Sandra — and tie Mike Weir too, which is really amazing. I’m just so happy,” Henderson said in her post-round interview with the Golf Channel. “You know, today was kind of a battle out there. Minjee [Lee], Nelly [Korda], they played good golf. It was just so windy. I’m just happy that I was able to come out on top.”
