"I am really excited to begin my professional career in 2015
and proud to represent Canada along the way," Henderson, a
native of Smiths Falls, Ontario, said in a statement. "I realize
what a big step it is to play professionally."
Henderson has won more than 50 tournaments as an amateur,
including three professional titles, and claimed the individual
crown this year at the Women's World Amateur Team Championship
where she led Canada to the silver medal.
During a glittering 2014 campaign, she also finished second at
the U.S. Women's Amateur and tied for 10th at the U.S. Women's
Open.
