The LPGA Tour is currently in full swing, and Canadian golfer Brooke Henderson is leading the charge. On Saturday, Henderson shot a remarkable 66 to take a one-shot lead at the LPGA Tour’s Kia Classic in Carlsbad, California.
Henderson, who is only 21 years old, has been making waves on the tour since she first joined in 2015. She has already won eight LPGA Tour events, including the 2016 KPMG Women’s PGA Championship. Her impressive performance on Saturday puts her in prime position to win her ninth title.
Henderson’s round of 66 was highlighted by a spectacular eagle on the par-5 13th hole. She also birdied four of the last five holes to put her in the lead. Henderson is now in a great position to win her first tournament of the year.
The Kia Classic is an important event for Henderson, as it is the first tournament of the year where she is the defending champion. She won the event last year, and will look to repeat her success this weekend.
Henderson is currently ranked fifth in the world and is one of the most promising young golfers on the tour. She has already made history by becoming the youngest player ever to win an LPGA Tour event. With her impressive performance on Saturday, she looks poised to make more history this weekend.
The LPGA Tour is full of talented golfers, but Brooke Henderson is certainly one to watch. Her impressive round of 66 puts her in a great position to win her ninth LPGA Tour event and defend her title at the Kia Classic. It will be exciting to see what she does this weekend and if she can take home the trophy.
