With one title changing hands at UFC 304 and the other still needing to be unified, what are the matchups to make for Belal Muhammad, Tom Aspinall and the others.
CALGARY — Brooke Henderson had to try to contain herself as a well-served group of fans on The Rink hole began to serenade her with a — fascinating — version of ‘O Canada.’ She gave them a thumbs-up and a smile. Hit her tee shot to about 20 feet. And then got another version of the anthem sung to her as she walked up to the green.
“It’s just hard to describe honestly how much it means to me, all the love and support,” Henderson said. “It’s hard to hit a tee shot right after (the anthem) but it’s such an amazing feeling and I just can’t thank everyone enough for coming out and supporting the event.”
Henderson did not win this year’s CPKC Women’s Open — Lauren Coughlin topped Mao Saigo by two – but in terms of her weekend effort, it was mission accomplished.
Henderson shot a 4-under 68 Sunday at Earl Grey Golf Club, her low round of the week. She, like last year in Vancouver, captured the Sandra Post Medal as low Canadian. Although she ended up seven back of Coughlin, she said there were plenty of positives to take away from this week — and into Paris.
Henderson notched her seventh top-10 finish of the season Sunday.
