The LPGA Tour heads north of the border this week as Royal Mayfair Golf Club in Edmonton, Alberta hosts the CPKC Women's Open 2026, one of the tour's marquee Canadian stops. A field of 156 players will compete across four rounds for a share of the $2.75 million purse, with the tournament also serving as the final tune up before Solheim Cup rosters are locked in.
Defending champion Brooke Henderson returns to try and repeat, and she will face a stacked leaderboard that includes Nelly Korda and Hyo Joo Kim among others. Tournament organizers confirmed that 30 of the top 50 ranked players in the world are entered this week, making it one of the deepest fields of the season.

Field and Storylines to Watch
Henderson's title defense is the headline story of the week, but she is not the only Canadian drawing attention. Organizers noted that 17 year old Canadian amateur Michelle Huang, fresh off a win on the Ladies European Tour, is also expected to compete in front of a home crowd.
Beyond the Canadian contingent, the event carries extra weight this year because of its position on the calendar. With the U.S. Solheim Cup roster nearing finalization, several players on the bubble are treating this week as a last chance to make their case for a spot on the team.
