With a parochial home crowd cheering her on, Henderson closed with a 4-under 68 at Mississauga Golf and Country Club to finish at 15-under-par, while Lee had a 68.

In a thrilling back nine duel, the Canadian broke a tie for the lead with a 6-foot birdie putt on the par-3 14th. On the short par-4 17th, she followed Lee’s 13-foot birdie putt with a 12-footer of her own to keep the lead.

“I love playing with Minjee. She’s a great friend and she is a really tough competitor. I knew today was going to be really tough playing with her,” Henderson said.

“She also has an amazing presence on the course that was really calming and relaxing, so I feel like it was a great pairing for me to have that kind of peace and calmness.”

Although she was denied a second title for the year, the runner-up finish sees Lee eat further into Jeeno Thitikul’s lead in the season-long Race to the CME Globe standings. The 320 points she gained leaves the three-time major champion just 54 points behind the Thai.

“I had a solid performance …. I kind of got outplayed I guess,” Lee said.

On the PGA TOUR Champions, Australian Cameron Percy took a share of third place, three shots behind the winner, American Stewart Cink, while Steve Allan and David Bransdon finished in equal eighth.

Percy moved up five places to 12th in the Charles Schwab Cup rankings, while Allan consolidated seventh position and Bransdon climbed to 50th.

On the DP World Tour, former Challenger PGA Tour of Australasia Order of Merit champion Kazuma Kobori finished as runner-up in the British Masters, closing with a 7-under-par 65, including a back nine of 30.

Meanwhile, NSW pro Austin Bautista logged another strong finish on the Sunshine Coast in Africa, finishing T3 in the SunBet Challenge.
