Brooke Henderson

Only Ko and Lexi Thompson had achieved victories at an earlier age. Represented Canada at the 2016 and 2021 Olympic Games and now has 11 LPGA Tour wins to her name, while she was runner-up in her title defence at the 2017 PGA Championship and joint second in the 2020 ANA Inspiration.
