CHASKA, Minn. – Brooke Henderson made her major championship debut as an aunt at Hazeltine on Thursday. At 4:51 a.m., sister Brittany gave birth to a baby girl. Golf Channel’s Grant Boone broke the news during the broadcast of the KPMG Women’s PGA Championship. Both mom and baby are doing well.
Brooke, who won this championship in 2016, was in the top 5 midway through her first round at Hazeltine. She has her cousin, Ryan Henderson, on the bag.
