Brooke Henderson defends CPKC Women's Open title in Edmonton
The US$2.75 million LPGA Tour event at Royal Mayfair Golf Club features six of the world's top 10 players, including world No. 1 Nelly Korda.
The LPGA Tour's CPKC Women's Open began at Edmonton's Royal Mayfair Golf Club with defending champion Brooke Henderson leading the field. The 28-year-old from Smiths Falls, Ont., won her second Canadian Open title last year in Mississauga and enters this year's tournament ranked 11th in the world.
Henderson has been playing well recently, finishing runner-up at last month's Evian Championship after losing to Haeran Ryu in a playoff. She holds 14 career LPGA Tour victories, a Canadian record for wins on a major golf circuit.
The tournament carries a purse of US$2.75 million and includes six of the world's top 10 golfers, among them world No. 1 Nelly Korda of the United States.
