Brooke Henderson tees it up with Mike Modano, Josh Donaldson
Brooke Henderson is one of four LPGA Tour professionals playing in the Diamond Resorts Invitational in Orlando this week.
The event consists of 27 Champions Tour players and 47 celebrities in a two-day stableford format.
Henderson was paired with Toronto Blue Jays third baseman Josh Donaldson and NHL Hall of Famer Mike Modano.
"It was a lot of fun," said Henderson, the 2016 Women's PGA Champion. "I know they're great in what they do off the course and they showed me they have a lot of skills on the course too."
Since the tournament is a charitable event for the LPGA pros, the Smiths Falls native is using it to get his game ready for the season, which begins in two weeks.
"I'm kind of using to test it out and see how it is and I'm pretty confident right now, I feel like I'm hitting the ball really well and hopefully this week I'll kind of get some of the loose stuff out and get ready for the Bahamas."
