  • Brooke is currently 103rd on the LPGA Career Money List with $2,899,967 (64 events). She has this week's tournament and two more in which to earn enough to break into the top 100 as a teenager (or to complete anything -- such as three-peat in Portland -- "as a teenager")

    Wendy Doolan is 100th with $2,973,823.

    There are no players higher than her on the list that have fewer events played.

    Top players with fewer than 200 events:

    4 Lorena Ochoa $14,863,331 (175 events)
    22 So Yeon Ryu $8,352,037 (142)
    25 Lydia Ko $7,837,623 (108)
    35 Lexi Thompson $6,754,152 (144)
    40 Jiyai Shin $6,148,668 (128)
    61 Azahara Munoz $4,772,541 (194)
    66 Sei Young Kim $4,282,933 (76)
    68 Seon-Hwa Lee $4,111,255 (188)
    70 Ariya Jutanugarn $4,012,635 (100)

    86 Mirim Lee $3,406,189 (92)
    89 Jenny Shuin $,412,540 (169)
    95 Pornanong Phatlum $3,120,879 (176)
    98 Lizette Salas $3,001,105 (134)

    125 Danielle Kang $2,381,795 (147)
    127 Haru Nomura $2,365,310 (115)
    128 Young Kim $2,364,228 (159)

    Sung Hyun Park $1,878,615 is 154th with only 25 events played.

    I believe that on the career money list, events played as a non-member are included in the count of events, but the money earned is not included in the money total.

    Brooke is off at 8:10am this morning (West Coast Time) from the 10th tee with Yani Tseng and Mirim Lee.

    Brooke Henderson doesn’t know what it's like other than to win in Portland. The back-to-back defending champion hopes to make it three in a row this week. As she told the media Tuesday, she’s hoping to combine the best of her two wins, an ideal setup in 2015 followed by an adrenaline fueled victory in 2016, to win again this year. She’ll need that extra boost to get by this week as she arrives in Oregon following a pressure-packed week in Canada where she competed on her home course in front of massive crowds. Henderson will play alongside former world No. 1 Yani Tseng who struggled for much of the first half of the season with missed cuts in 11 of 13 events. But Tseng looks to have found some form in the back half of the season as she’s made the cut in four of her last five starts and will look to continue that momentum this week in Portland. Also looking to continue to roll with some momentum is Mirim Lee, the third member of this group, who arrives in Portland fresh off a runner-up finish in Canada where she picked up her fourth top-10 of the year.

    THE MODERATOR: World No. 10 Brooke Henderson here. Brooke how does it feel to be back in Portland as the two-time defending champion?

    BROOKE HENDERSON: It's amazing. You know, this event changed my life two years ago becoming an LPGA Tour member, winning my first event. To be back here, I have so many great memories.

    I played 18 holes, practice round just today, and just walking around I remember certain shots I hit and what they really meant to me. It's just such a special feeling.

    I'm really excited to tee it up on Thursday, and hopefully get off to a fast start again and see if I can contend on Sunday.

    THE MODERATOR: What is it about this golf course here that really allows you to play some of your best golf?

    BROOKE HENDERSON: You know, the first year it just set up really well for me. You know, tree lined, kind of tight. I had a really good feel for the right angles and where I could hit the ball on the greens, and I felt like my strategy was really good.

    I was able to play my best, probably the best I've ever played that week to win my first LPGA Tour event. Last year I was kind of running off adrenaline. This year I'm trying to do a mixture of both.

    THE MODERATOR: Is a three-peat on your mind this week?

    BROOKE HENDERSON: Of course I would love to win here again. The thing about wins is you can't really force them, though. You need two get good breaks at the right moments and you need to play your best really to win out here against the best in the world.

    Obviously I would love to do it again, but first things first. I need to play really well on Thursday, Friday, and hopefully move up the leaderboard on Saturday and Sunday.

    THE MODERATOR: Circling back to last week, you had your career-best finish at the CP Women's Open. What was that experience like playing in front of your hometown crowd?

    BROOKE HENDERSON: Yeah, it was truly incredible, something that I'll remember for the rest of my life. It was just such an amazing opportunity to be able to play at home in our nation's capital, Canada's 150th birthday.

    Just the people out there supporting me and cheering me on was incredible. I felt like I tried to embrace it as much as I could. It was my best finish at a CP Women's Open, and I'm really happy about it. Hopefully I can just continue to learn from it, because I feel like I built a lot of confidence last week.

    THE MODERATOR: It's been two really big weeks in a row for you. How are you holding up mentally and physically as well?

    BROOKE HENDERSON: I think two weeks off after the British I kind of was able to relax a little bit and get mentally and physically ready for the upcoming weeks.

    Obviously last week was a huge week for me; this week, very big as well. I would love to be able to perform at my best. I'm planning on playing next week and the final major of the year in two weeks.

    Really busy stretch, but really excited for it. I feel like my game is in the right spot to be able to compete at all four.

    THE MODERATOR: What's it like walking around? You got some fans; maybe signing autographs around here. What's it like to be recognized here in Portland?

    BROOKE HENDERSON: It's amazing. Like I said, this tournament changed my whole life two years ago. To see fans out here cheering me on, again -- and, you know, I just saw couple little kids out there, and to see their smiles and want my autograph, it's really inspiring for me.

    Hopefully I can continue to inspire this week and play really well and have lots of fans come on my side as well.

    THE MODERATOR: Questions for Brooke?

    Q. (No microphone.)
    BROOKE HENDERSON: Yeah, you know, I'm super excited to be back here. Such an important and special tournament to me. Cambia has been a great sponsor the last two years that I've played. I feel like my sister getting the sponsor exemption in 2015 and I Monday qualified, there are just so many special things that happened here. I'm really excited to tee it up on Thursday and hopefully do it all over again.

    THE MODERATOR: Thanks, Brooke.

    • IIRC Brooke would be the first ever to 3peat at this event.

            • Difficult day for Brooke today. Just shows you how important hitting fairways are. It's ok, her and Alena are off together tomorrow so it should be a fun day for our Canadian girls.

              • A threepeat would have been a real treat, but such is golf.

                • Brooke is, as of this past Sunday, no longer a teenager.

                  So this commercial is no longer usable.

                  Comment


                  • Hope my math is correct here. Brooke tee's off and 8:30 France time so around 2:30 am in Ontario. So if you set your PRV's for the 5am start time on the golf channel you should be able to catch some of her round.

                    Comment


                    • Im curious if Brooke may cancel the tournament in New Zealand now that the event in China has been cancelled. The flight alone there is 24 hrs, then a week off, then 12 more hours to South Korea. If she was to come home and rest is would save her all that time, never mind the jet lag. She loves to play so Im guessing she won't but it is a thought. Do you stay in New Zealand as a holiday perhaps? Lydia may offer her a tour, who knows.

                      Comment


                      • Brooke is tearing it up in the 3rd round in the tourney in New Zealand. After 16 holes, she is -6 for the round and has caught the 2nd round leader Mozo. Must be putting like a Wizard. Go Go Go eh!

                        • Apparently there was a reporting or posting adjustment. Brooke ends with terrific 67 good for solo 2nd and one stroke behind Mozo. Should be paired for final round. Go Brooke

                          • In contention again. Not much more to ask that that.
