At the age of 19 Brooke Henderson of Smith Falls Ontario has already captured an amazing four LPGA titles. Sunday, Henderson won the Meijer LPGA Classic, an extraordinary accomplishment that was made all the more sweeter due to the fact that she got to capture the title on Father's Day with her dad and coach, Dave Henderson, by her side.
Following Henderson's win in Michigan, the young golf star celebrated her title by thanking her father with a heartfelt tweet.
Speaking with the press after the final round, Henderson called her win on Sunday the "perfect day" before thanking her father for all his support.
"My dad is my coach, he's a great father to both my sister (caddie Brittany) and I, and he's one of our best friends. He's with us all the time, and he gave me a lot of lines early in the week that I didn't know, that I wouldn't normally take without him there. But he said, 'If you want to win and you want to contend, you need to take these lines off the tee.'
"I did that and I had an advantage over the rest of the field all four days. So this win, I say it's for him, but it really is for him because I probably wouldn't have done it without him." - (Canadian Press)
What does the rest of 2017 hold for Henderson? Who knows, but with the way the young Canadian's playing, don't be surprised to see Henderson continue to add to her title count.
