Brooke Henderson shot a final-round 70 to finish the Hilton Grand Vacations Tournament of Champions at 16-under and an impressive wire-to-wire victory. Charley Hull and Maja Stark finsihed tied for 2nd, 4-shots back of the winner. The win is Henderson’s 13th on the LPGA Tour.
Henderson had been close to winning the Tournament of Champions three other times, but this year took out any doubt with strong play from start to finish. If Henderson can putt as well for the season as she did this week, she will win a half dozen times this year.
Unfortunately the LPGA does not play again until Feb 23 in Thailand.
