Henderson 1 back of Yang after 36 holes of CP Women's Open
REGINA, Saskatchewan (AP) Any Yang shot a 7-under 65 on Friday to take the second-round lead in the CP Women's Open, a stroke ahead of Canadian star Brooke Henderson and Angel Yin at Wascana Country Club.
Yang, the three-time LPGA Tour winner from South Korea, birdied four of the first five holes and finished with nine birdies and two bogeys. She had a 13-under 131 total.
The 20-year-old Henderson, from Smiths Falls, Ontario, had her second straight 66.
Jocelyne Bourassa is the only Canadian to win the national championship, accomplishing the feat in the inaugural 1973 La Canadienne at Montreal Municipal. Henderson won the LOTTE Championship in April in Hawaii for her sixth tour title.
Yin shot 67. She eagled the par-5 12th and closed with three straight birdies on Nos. 7-9.
