Sammamish, Wash. — Brooke Henderson beat top-ranked Lydia Ko with a birdie on the first hole of a playoff Sunday in the KPMG Women’s PGA Championship after overcoming a three-shot deficit on the back nine.

The 18-year-old Canadian, ranked No. 4 in the world, closed with a bogey-free 6-under 65 — the best round of the week at Sahalee — to match Ko at 6-under 278. Ko finished with a 67.

In the playoff on the par-4 18th, Henderson hit her second shot from 155 yards to 3 feet, while Ko’s second from farther back in the fairway left her with 20 feet. Ko missed to the left, and Henderson tapped in to cap a week that started with a hole-in-one on her fourth hole of the tournament and ended with a major championship.

College RowingYale Wins, Harvard Sinks

New London, Conn. — For the second straight year, Yale’s crew team has defeated rival Harvard in the 151st regatta, but this time with a footnote.

Rough conditions on Connecticut’s Thames River on Sunday wreaked havoc on the nation’s oldest collegiate sporting event.

Yale jumped out to an early lead before the Harvard crew’s boat took on water and had to stop racing about 3 minutes into the four-mile race. Harvard rowers had to be rescued. No one was injured.

Last year, Yale finished almost 17 seconds ahead of Harvard.

The first race was in 1852. It’s been held regularly since 1878, interrupted during the Civil War, World War I and World War II.
