Does anyone know if KBong just saw Lydia's second shot on 18?

 Yep, too bad there's no network coverage here.....

LPGA TV is a joke, can't even get a TV contract.

Golf channel suck for cutting out after 13 holes or whatever... same as yesterday!

 My streaming service doesn't have CNBC....... I just got rid of over priced Direct TV.

Using SLING as an experiment, but not impressed so far, have to explore other options....

OK, I'm watching this today.  I don't watch the LPGA much.  Is it just me, or are the ladies covered in logos much more than the guys?

[sg91]

Boy she made this hard for herself

[Zitlow]

What's up with Brooke Henderson? Oh wait, nevermind. 

[Zitlow]

They need a pond filled with Evian water for Brooke to jump in. 

[HankScorpio]

Congrats to Brooke!  Really made it hard for herself but that birdie on 18 was clutch.  🇨🇦🇨🇦👏

[18majors]

 

Finally, Brooke did it; that's now 12 LPGA wins including 2 Majors.

Beautiful play on the last hole.  Schubert misses.  Henderson makes it.  Winner!  Way to fight through the bad last day.  Great golf to watch.

Thank you!

 That was a nice finish.

 Sure wish GC would show the ladies more respect. Instead they show a bunch of Seniors......

 

[Stooch]

Well I'm glad Brooke was able to make today very enjoyable to watch for all fans. I'm just gonna congratulate Brooke on overcoming her nerves and digging down deep  to close strong and get it done.  Now that was way too much stress and anxiety this early in the morning so I think I'm gonna go ZEN it out and go fishing lol

Yes enjoyable, but not Major golf IMO. Course was set up for even short-hitters to win - very funny incident with the ball being picked up by a spectator - who would leave a ball lying about during a tournament ?

Ha Ha you're at a pro event and a golf ball rolls to your feet ........ where do think it came from? lol

[One Putter]

What a roller coaster, good for her.

[Stooch]

Based off Minjee and Brooke, if you wanna win this event, switch to left-hand-low 2 months before hand lol

To be fair, she probably never thought that a professional player would be that far offline.   Aww, who am I kidding.  It looked like she found it and was going to give it to the rules official.  The look on her face when he scolded her was near priceless!

God forbid they set a course up that doesn't give the long drivers a big advantage

[ChronicSlicer]

Congrats to Brooke on chugging along today.

I had a feeling So Yeon wouldn't last, but it was nice to see her in the mix again.

 

Congrats to Sophia Shubert, very impressed she didn't fold like so many first time major contenders do. She was the real winner for me and almost made my prediction of a completely off the radar player winning come true.

 

Big thanks to Alison Lee for showing us hackers, even the Pro's can shoot a 9 on a par three sometimes.

I guess long hitters actually get the advantage both ways, they can reach a longer hole in 2, and they should have a more lofted club into the shortened holes. 

[BadgerLin]

That was a really wild ride!  So many golfers with a chance to win, 4 putts by both players in final group,  balls hit all over off the course!

[Cwebb]

This is the first major I can recall, where the winner 4 putted in the last round.  Was a weird day out there

ehh, I'm not of the opinion that hitting a 9 iron from a similar distance that someone else is choosing an 8 or a 7, is really an advantage.  A 6 iron vs a 4 hybrid,... probably
