The world of sports can be a competitive place. Athletes are not always friends, as they usually go up against each other in the various tournaments, and friendships can get in the way of it. But this is not the case in the entire golf fraternity, and especially for the LPGA Tour.
You may be wondering, “How?” Well, recently, the Canadian pride, Brooke Henderson, showed the spirit of sisterhood and friendship towards her fellow LPGA golfer, despite her heartbreaking loss at her home ground.

Brooke Henderson showcases her friendship with a fellow golfer
Just last weekend, Brooke Henderson was excited to compete at her home ground in Vancouver for the Canadian Women’s Open. But to her disappointment, Shaughnessy Golf and Country Club wasn’t the right companion for her for the competition.
Though the two-time major winner was able to make the cut, after a disappointing game on Saturday, she fell out of contention and failed to capitalize on her home advantage. The golfer shot three over 75 during the third round but was not pessimistic about her game even then.
Henderson has now made her way back to the USA. She is currently in Portland, preparing to tee off for the Portland Classic. But she is missing one of her friends, Mi Jung Hur. The golfer might have sent a picture to Jung Hur that she clicked in front of her 2009 champion poster. Jung posted the picture of Henderson smiling from ear to ear on her Instagram, writing, “Thank You my cutest sis in the world.”

Henderson then reshared the photo on her Instagram story and wrote, “Miss you Unni @mi_jung1205.” ‘Unni’ seems to be the nickname that the Canadian uses for her friend. This is not the first time the Canadian golfer has shown her pride for a fellow member of the Tour. She made a similar gesture after the Amundi Evian Championship in 2023.

Henderson is a proud Sisterhood community member
The 25-year-old star was the defending champion in France this year at the Amundi Evian Championship. The golfer could not win and defend her title, as she finished in the second position on the leaderboard. Henderson lost her crown to Celine Boutier, but she was not sad about it.
She spoke to the media after her loss and praised the Frenchwoman for her historic win and her game. Instead of being sad for her loss, the Canadian pride was happy for Boutier, displaying the classic emotions of sisterhood and sportsmanship.
