Canada’s Brooke Henderson seeks repeat in CPKC Women’s Open
Edmonton - Brooke Henderson thrives under the media spotlight, having won the CPKC Women's Open twice before, in 2018 and 2019. She enjoys the extra attention from her home crowd in her annual tournament. Henderson, 28, from Smiths Falls, Ontario, is aiming for her third win in the 2026 CPKC Women's Open, set to begin Thursday at the Royal Mayfair Club in Edmonton.
The US$2.75 million event features six of the world's top 10 golfers, with Henderson ranked 11th among the top 25. Known as the winningest Canadian golfer with 14 tour victories, Henderson is confident after two major finishes this summer. She also recently got engaged to Minnesota Twins pitcher Ricky Castro. The tournament, held at the Royal Mayfair Club, sees 15 Canadians competing against 141 professionals and amateurs on a par-70 course.
With Edmonton experiencing heavy rainfall, the course is in good condition, though mosquitoes may be an issue.
