CP Women's Open final leaderboard https://www.lpga.com/leaderboard
With rounds of 66 69 65 69 -19 Brooke Henderson did more than enough to win the CP Women's Open for the second straight year and it took a 65 64 weekend from this year's best player Jin Young Ko to beat her with a -26 aggragate. That is a tournament record, she didn't make a bogey all week, in fact hasn't made one in 106 holes !
Ko won for the 4th time this season including 2 majors and is a shoe in for Player of the Year. Danish Star Nicole Broch Larsen finished 2nd, 66,66,66,69 -21.
Brooke was in contention all sunny weekend long, thrilling all the fans who made the trek up the 404 to stunning Magna GC. It's well worth mentioning another $2.2m was raised again for the CP charity "CPHASHEART". They have now raised nearly $8.5m
So, T3 is nothing for Brooke to be ashamed of, as she said afterwards " I needed to shoot 59 or something to beat her, she played so well"
Anne-Catherine Tanguay ended up T44, 66 74 71 71 -6. All the other Canadians missed the cut. Of the 73 players who made the cut, only 3 finished over par. Perfect weather, wide fairways, large greens made ideal scoring conditions for these top LPGA players.
For those asking why we didn't see more of Brooke, the reason is TSN has to take the Golf Channels feed, they own the TV rights and tend to focus on the leader. Also the LPGA sent the field out in three's off split tees early, to avoid clashing with the Tour Championship finale coverage.
