Canadian Teen Henderson Has 1-Shot Lead in LPGA Tour Event

DALY CITY, Calif. — Canadian teen Brooke Henderson lost some momentum Saturday afternoon. She at least kept the lead in the Swinging Skirts LPGA Classic.

Henderson led by as many as five shots early in the third round at tough, chilly Lake Merced Golf Club. It all changed on the final two holes when the 17-year-old made a pair of bogeys and had to settle for an even-par 72 and a one-shot lead over Morgan Pressel and Min Seo Kwak of South Korea.

"If someone told me at the beginning of the week I would be leading going into the final round, I would've taken it," Henderson said.
