Henderson charges up the field 35 spots at LPGA Drive On Championship... full leaderboard

 LPGA Drive On Championship leaderboard here 

It was another good day for Brooke Henderson, this time at the LPGA Drive On Championship in Fort Myers.

She posted 5 birdies in seven holes on her final nine after going bogey free, while on her first nine she added a 6th birdie on the 18th, against just 1 bogey for E posting -5 67. She began the day T51 and has moved up 35 spots to T16 at -6 and that's 7 shots off Saturday's final round held by Leona Maguire from Ireland and Marina Alex, an American, both at -13. 

Henderson said she didn't play the Crown Colony G&CC until recently, " I finally felt like I figured out this course a little bit, hit the ball into some good spots, giving myself some opportunities for birdies, made a couple of long ones, and had a couple of tap ins"

It was a tough day for Maude-Aimee Leblanc who began the day T2 after an opening -5, 67 but a double bogey, bogey start lead to an unsightly +6 78 so she has missed the cut which fell at -1.

"Irish eyes are smilin" with Leona McGuire tied for the lead here and her fellow countryman Seamus Power leading the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro Am by 5 shots after a scoring record pair of 64's for 128.
