CPKC Women’s Open Prize Money Payout 2024
Many of the world’s best are competing at Canada's national championship, including defending champion Megan Khang
Canada’s national championship takes place at Earl Grey Golf Club in Alberta as many of the world’s best players line up to compete for a record prize money payout at the event.
Last year, Megan Khang claimed her maiden LPGA Tour title in 191 attempts when the event was held in Vancouver, which bagged her a first prize of $375,000 from an overall purse of $2.5m.
However, there is more at stake in 2024 with the payout increased to $2.6m. As a result, this year’s winner will take home $390,000, while the runner-up will earn $245,246. Everyone in the top five will claim a six-figure sum.
As usual, there are also 500 Race to the CME Globe points available to the winner, as well as all-important world ranking points.
Below is the prize money payout for the CPKC Women’s Open.

Who Are The Star Names In The CPKC Women's Open?
As well as defending champion Megan Khang, who beat Jin Young Ko in a playoff in 2023, there are many other top names from the women’s game heading to Calgary, including six of the world’s top 10.
The player who will generate the most attention is Canadian superstar Brooke Henderson. She has 13 LPGA Tour wins to her name, including her national championship in 2018, and she’ll have the backing of most of the crowd as she looks for a repeat of that success.
