Top women's amateur Brooke Henderson of Canada turns ...
Henderson announced Thursday she’ll forego college to turn professional to become the latest young female athlete to sign on with IMG
www.amateurgolf.comHere’s the latest on Brooke Henderson and her caddie situation:
Brooke Henderson is entering 2026 with a temporary change to her caddie setup. Her long-time caddie, her sister Brittany Henderson, is pregnant and will miss most of the 2026 season, including most events beyond the season opener. This has led Henderson to work with a veteran caddie, John Killeen, for much of the year, starting after the season opener [sources indicate Brittany’s pregnancy and the resulting temporary transition to a new bag ].[3][5][9]
The season opener for 2026, the Hilton Grand Vacations Tournament of Champions in Orlando, is expected to be the one event where Brittany will be on the bag before stepping back for the remainder of the year, with Killeen taking over afterward.[5][9][3]
Reports also note that this is a notable change for Henderson, who has enjoyed a long, successful partnership with Brittany (including many LPGA wins together), and she has publicly spoken about the challenge and opportunities of adapting to a different caddie dynamic this year.[8][3]
Beyond the caddie change, there has been related coverage about Henderson’s off-season preparations and equipment adjustments, but the core latest news centers on Brittany’s temporary pause and Henderson’s collaboration with Killeen for the 2026 season.[4][3]
Illustration: If you’d like, I can summarize the timeline of events (announcement, opener specifics, and expected continuation) or pull a quick head-to-head comparison of the bag changes for 2026.
