LPGA Tour Manulife Classic leaderboard http://www.lpga.com/tournaments/manulife-lpga-classic/leaderboard
There are13 Canadians in the field for the 2016 Manulife LPGA Classic and the best of the bunch were at -3 69, Alena Sharp and Maude Aimee LeBlanc.
The one getting all the attention was as always world #3 Brooke Henderson who was at -4 until she dropped a couple of shots on her back nine to end up at -2 70.
" All in all I'm happy with -2 on my opening round although disappointed to drop a couple of shots late in my round for these amazing fans, whose support I fed off of all day. The wind really picked up on the back nine. It was kind of difficult. You could see all three of us not really playing exactly the way we wanted just because of the wind and the conditions"
Until her 18th hole, the leader who is heralded as one of the most beautiful women on tour, Belen Mozo, a very fit little Spaniard, was playing the 18th at -7, but took a triple bogey to fall to -4, leaving the lead to South Korean Chella Choi at -6 after her 66..
On a windy day on this Whistle Bear course, U.S. Open champion Brittany Lang who was second here last year and remember she won on Grey Silo in 2012, is T2 -5, 67 as are South Korea’s In Gee Chun, Spain’s Azahara Munoz and Sweden’s Dani Holmqvist.
