Brooke Henderson leads in windy LPGA Tour opener in Bahamas

January 28, 2018

PARADISE ISLAND, Bahamas (AP) — Brooke Henderson birdied the par-5 18th hole and had a one-stroke lead over top-ranked Shanshan Feng on Saturday in the suspended second round of the wind-swept Pure Silk-Bahamas LPGA Classic.

Henderson shot an even-par 73 to get to 5 under overall after two rounds and three days at the Ocean Club Golf Course in the event cut to 54 holes after wind wiped out play most of Friday.

Feng had nine holes left when play was suspended because of darkness. On her last hole, she birdied the 18th.

Lexi Thompson was 3 under along with Ryann O’Toole, Danielle Kang, Luna Sobron Galmes and Wei-Ling Hsu. Thompson and Sobron Galmes had 10 holes to play, and Hsu had nine left. O’Toole had a 69, and Kang shot 73.
