Brooke Henderson, born on September tenth, nineteen ninety-seven, is a distinguished Canadian professional golfer who has made her mark on the LPGA Tour. With a remarkable career that began at a young age, she quickly rose to prominence in the world of golf.
In two thousand sixteen, at just eighteen years old, Henderson achieved a significant milestone by winning her first major title at the KPMG Women's PGA Championship, becoming the youngest winner in the event's history. Her talent and determination have since led her to secure a total of fourteen LPGA victories as of August two thousand twenty-five, making her the most successful Canadian golfer on major professional tours.
Henderson's accolades include being named the Canadian Press female athlete of the year in two thousand fifteen, two thousand seventeen, and two thousand eighteen. She further solidified her legacy by winning her second major title at the two thousand twenty-two Evian Championship and triumphing at the Canadian Women's Open, her home championship, in both two thousand eighteen and two thousand twenty-five.
In recognition of her exemplary conduct and contributions to the sport, Henderson was honored with the Founders Award in November two thousand nineteen, a testament to her embodiment of the spirit and values of the LPGA, as voted by her fellow golfers.
