“Canadian Opens, I haven’t always finished my best here just because it’s so busy and I have so many commitments and a lot of other things going on,” said the 18-year-old Henderson after Sunday’s final round just outside of Calgary. While Sharp accepted the Sandra Post award as the low Canadian pro and Lee scored a medal as low amateur, Henderson - the emerging superstar was under immense pressure as the poster-girl for the 2016 CP Women’s Open - left Priddis Greens with the feeling she is trending in the right direction when competing on home turf. “From the fans and just the golf that I played, it’s been amazing.” “When I look back at how great this whole week has been, I’m kind of speechless, to be honest,” said the 19-year-old Lee, a regular at Glencoe and member of Golf Canada’s national amateur team. I keep putting myself in great position, and I feel like a win is close,” said Sharp, who admitted Sunday’s celebrations would be low-key due to an early-morning flight to the Manulife LPGA Classic in Cambridge, Ont.Ĭalgary’s Jaclyn Lee and Quebec City’s Anne-Catherine Tanguay checked in at T-59 at 2-under 286.

She’s optimistic that fourth won’t stand as her top result for too long. When she arrived in Calgary after an unforgettable experience in Rio, Sharp’s career-best in LPGA Tour action was a split of fifth. On this shivery Sunday afternoon, the 35-year-old drained a birdie try on her final test to drop to 16-under 272 and climb into solo fourth on the leaderboard. When Priddis Greens last played host to the Canadian Women’s Open in 2009, Sharp lipped out a must-have putt on No. “I couldn’t have asked for a better way to come back from Rio than to play in Canada for two weeks, and playing well here is icing on the cake … I can’t really put into words how happy I am right now.”
