Brooke Henderson eagled the first playoff hole to win the ShopRite LPGA Classic as Lindsey Weaver-Wright remained in search of a first career title.
Canada's Henderson captured her 11th LPGA title by charging to the top of the leaderboard with a seven-under-par 64 at Seaview Hotel and Golf Club. She got off to a quick start with three birdies in the first six holes before an eagle at the par-five ninth.
Adding birdies at 12 and 18 to grab the clubhouse lead, Henderson was quickly joined by Weaver-Wright, whose six birdies included three in the last four holes.
The American poured in a long birdie putt at the 17th, and after coming up short of the green at 18, she drained a testing birdie attempt to force the playoff.
