CPKC Women's Open Purse, Prize Money And Field 2023
Paula Reto defends her title as many of the world's best compete in Vancouver
After a three-year wait because of the Covid-19 pandemic, Shaughnessy Golf and Country Club in Vancouver, Canada, finally hosts the CPKC Women's Open.
The course had been earmarked to host the 2020 tournament, but the outbreak put paid to that plan. There was no tournament in 2021 either, and when it returned in 2022, it was held at Ottawa Hunt and Golf Club, where Paula Reto claimed the title with her first LPGA Tour win.
Nevertheless, it's a case of better late than never for the club, which finally gets its chance to host Canada's national championship this week. A look at the field would show it has been worth the wait, too, with nine of the world's top 10 in attendance.
That includes Lydia Vu, who is currently top of the world rankings courtesy of her win in the AIG Women's Open, her second Major title of the year. Beneath her in the world rankings is Nelly Korda, and she also plays, along with Amundi Evian Championship winner Celine Boutier, 2019 winner of the tournament Jin Young Ko and KPMG Women's PGA Champion Ruoning Yin.
The other players in the world's top 10 competing this week are Lydia Ko, Hyo-Joo Kim, US Women's Open champion Allisen Corpuz and Brooke Henderson, with only World No.9 Charley Hull missing the tournament.
Where Henderson is concerned, there will be plenty of expectation on her shoulders to win the tournament in her homeland, particularly after her triumph in it in 2018. The Canadian has not had the best 2023, but her runner-up in the Amundi Evian Championship reminded everyone of her abilities.
Other Canadians in the field hoping to make a positive impression in their homeland are sisters Maddie and Ellie Szeryk and veteran Alena Sharp.

Last year, South African Reto claimed the title by one shot over Nelly Korda and Choi Hye-jin, and she returns hoping for a similar outcome. If she is to win the trophy, her form will need to improve after a year that has seen her miss the cut 10 times with her only top 10 finish being a T6 in January's Hilton Grand Vacations Tournament of Champions.
The tournament also marks the last opportunity for players to jostle for a place in Stacy Lewis's US Solheim Cup team. Vu, Korda, Corpuz and Megan Khang, who also plays, are all guaranteed their places.
However, there are still eight slots available. Currently, Jennifer Kupcho, Danielle Kang, Lexi Thompson, Rose Zhang and Angel Yin occupy the final automatic qualifying positions. All five of those play, but there are also slots available for three captain's picks.
Will the likes of Cheyenne Knight and Ally Ewing grasp their last chance to impress the captain before she reveals her choices for the match at Finca Cortesin in Spain?
Players are competing for a purse of $2.5m, with the winner earning $375,000.
