The LPGA Tour is making its one stop of the year in Canada with the CPKC Women’s Open at Mississaugua Golf and Country Club in Ontario.
At the event, many of the world’s best players are competing for a share of a record purse for the tournament.
The likes of Jeeno Thitikul, Akie Iwai and Yu Liu are all in the running for the title with one round to play but, going into the final day, Brooke Henderson and Minjee Lee are leading the way.
Along with those names, Nelly Korda, Lydia Ko and Jin Young Ko are among the other big players who made the cut, with all hoping to emulate the achievement of 2024 winner Lauren Coughlin, who beat Mao Saigo by two at Earl Grey Golf Club in Calgary.

Whoever does lift the trophy on Sunday evening will not only bank 500 Race to the CME Globe points, but will also claim a healthy paycheck from a record payout.
When Coughlin won in 2024 she earned $390,000 from a $2.6m purse but, this year, a total of $2.75m is up for grabs. As a result, this year’s winner will claim $412,500.
Below is the full prize money breakdown for the CPKC Women’s Open.
