Vancouver (AFP) - Brooke Henderson's first LPGA start was at the Canadian Pacific Women's Open in 2012 so it is only fitting that the national championship is also her first as a full-fledged Tour member.

The 17-year-old Henderson was granted an LPGA Tour card on Tuesday, following her maiden win at the Portland Classic where she dominated the field by eight strokes to become the first Canadian winner on the LPGA in 14 years.
