rooke Henderson fired a
two-under par 69 to grab
a one-stroke victory at the
LPGA Meijer Classic, becoming
the winningest Canadian golfer in
history with her ninth career crown.
Henderson had been level
with Sandra Post, former
Masters champion Mike Weir
and George Knudson on eight
career victories until capturing
her second Meijer title in three
seasons. "That's really cool,"
Henderson said. "Earlier this
year, to get my eighth win and
to tie that record was a huge
deal for me. Now, to kind of
breakthrough, that is awesome."
It was the second title of the
year for the 21-year-old prodigy,
who also took the LPGA Lotte
Championship in April in Hawaii.
She has won at least one LPGA
title in five consecutive years and
