LPGA Tour Lorena Ochoa Invitational leaderboard http://www.lpga.com/leaderboard
Brooke Henderson played 5 of the 6 weeks of the Asian Tour swing and after a week off she is playing in the 36 player field at the Lorena Ochoa Invitational at Club de Golf Mexico.
Despite the fact there are only 36 players, the top 20 will get full points towards next week's finale of the Race to CME Globe. Henderson is currently third with 3,186 points, Lydia Ko is 2nd 4,365 while Ariya Jutanugarn leads with 4,491.
As it stands, any of these top 3 will win the Race outright, if they win the Tour Championship. Defending champion Inbee Park has withdrawn due to her thumb injury.
Apart from the points race, the players come to play here to support Ochoa's endeavours, remember she quit in her prime to become a mother, and she could really play.
She finished her career with 27 LPGA wins (tied 16th all-time), including two major championships. She won the Rolex Player of the Year award and Vare Trophy in four consecutive seasons from 2006-2009. Ochoa was ranked No. 1 in the world for 158 weeks (most all-time) from 2007-2010 and was the first Mexican golfer (male or female) to reach number one in the world; she will also be the first Mexican golfer to enter the World Golf Hall of Fame (lpgatour.com)
