Japan’s Miyu Yamashita wins CPKC Women’s Open in Edmonton
Japan's Miyu Yamashita cruised to a nine-stroke victory at the CPKC Women's Open in Edmonton, matching the LPGA Tour's 72-hole scoring record. The 25-year-old finished at 23-under 257, with Canadian teenager Anna Huang tying for fourth as the top domestic player.
Miyu Yamashita wins CPKC Women's Open in wire-to-wire fashion
EDMONTON, Alberta — Japan's Miyu Yamashita won the CPKC Women's Open in commanding fashion on Sunday, going wire to wire to claim her fourth LPGA Tour title and second of the season. The 25-year-old closed with a 4-under 66 at Royal Mayfair Club to finish at 23-under 257, matching the LPGA Tour's 72-hole scoring record set by Sei Young Kim in 2018 (257, 31 under at Thornberry Creek).
Yamashita, who stands just 4-foot-11, entered the final round with a six-shot cushion and stretched the margin to nine, finishing well ahead of runner-up Yuri Yoshida, also of Japan, who was at 14 under after a 69. The victory was her fourth LPGA Tour win in four different countries: she won the Meijer LPGA Classic in Michigan in June, and last year captured the Women's British Open in Wales and the Maybank Championship in Malaysia en route to being named rookie of the year. Yamashita also has 13 titles on the Japan LPGA circuit.
The win was never seriously threatened. Yamashita opened with a course-record 62 on Thursday, added a 64 on Friday to lead by five, and posted 65 on Saturday to widen the gap to six. Her final-round 66 included a birdie on the 18th hole.
The tournament, worth US$2.75 million, was played on a tree-lined layout that was also a mosquito hot spot after record summer rain in the region. Yamashita's 257 total broke the tournament record of 262 set by Jin Young Ko in 2019 at Magna in Aurora, Ontario. She also set 36- and 54-hole scoring records for the event.
Canadian players shine
Canadian teenager Anna Huang of Vancouver was the top home-country player, closing with a 5-under 65 to finish at 12 under, tied for fourth. The 17-year-old made the cut at the CPKC Women's Open for the first time after two previous attempts. Huang has been in strong form recently: she won her fourth European Tour title in early August, becoming the youngest player to win four on that circuit.
"It just means so much to me to be back home, play in front of home crowds," Huang said. "I had a lot of fun this week and I gained a lot of valuable experience. To make a cut at any LPGA event is really special and then to play so well as I did this week at the Canadian Open is just really, really awesome. I'm really happy that I played well in front of the best in the world and hopefully I can continue doing that."
Aphrodite Deng of Calgary, a 16-year-old amateur who won the 2025 U.S. Girls' Junior, shot a final-round 69 to finish at 11 under, tied for seventh. Deng was the low amateur in the event for the second consecutive year.
Two-time winner Brooke Henderson of Smiths Falls, Ont., carded an even-par 70 to finish at 7 under, tied for 13th.
"It's amazing to see so many Maple Leafs at the top of the leaderboard," Henderson said. "It's really cool to see that and to be a part of it, and I feel like the future is really bright for the next few years."
Other Canadians in the field included Michelle Xing, an 18-year-old amateur from Richmond Hill, Ont., who shot 6 under on her front nine and finished at 3 under. Savannah Grewal of Mississauga and 16-year-old amateur Clairey Lin of Langley, B.C., were both 3 over, and Maude-Aimee Leblanc of Sherbrooke, Que., finished 4 over.
Top-ranked Nelly Korda shot 69 on Sunday to finish at 5 under.
What's next
Huang and Deng earned spots in the LPGA's FM Championship, which begins Thursday at TPC Boston in Norton, Mass., thanks to their top-10 finishes. Henderson said she will "hang on to the top 15 and move on to Boston," summarizing her week as "a great week overall."
The 2027 CPKC Women's Open is scheduled to be held at Royal Ottawa Golf Club in Gatineau, Que.
Meanwhile, three spots on the U.S. Solheim Cup team were determined during the week. Captain Angela Stanford will announce her three picks on Monday for the Sept. 11-13 matches in the Netherlands. Allisen Corpuz secured the final automatic spot on Friday, while Andrea Lee and Alison Lee earned places based on the Rolex Rankings on Sunday.

Each row is one claim, attributed to the outlet whose wording states it most clearly. Confidence rates how directly the source text states the claim — explicit and unhedged rates high; hedged, pieced-together, or internally inconsistent statements rate lower. It does not measure whether the claim is true. Status counts the distinct outlets we found asserting it — so a single-source claim can still show high confidence, and a multi-source claim can show medium. Every one of those outlets is named beside the status, so you can check the count against the list. For claims extracted before we began storing that list, the row says so: it names the outlet the claim is quoted from and states that we have not recorded which outlets backed it. Outlets wrote at different times, so a figure that evolves — a casualty count, for example — can legitimately differ between rows; check the "as of" time next to each claim's source.
