Canadian Brooke Henderson wins second CPKC Women’s Open title

The GIST: Canadians have been dominating the sports world all year long, and another name joined the fun yesterday: world No. 58 Brooke Henderson. The pride of Smith Falls, Ontario, came out on top at the CPKC Women’s Open in Mississauga, claiming her second national title. Eh-mazing.

🏆 Hometown victory marks Henderson’s first LPGA title in over two years: What better place to end a title drought than in front of your home crowd? The 27-year-old birdied the 17th hole to stay one stroke ahead of world No. 4 Minjee Lee, ultimately recording her 14th LPGA Tour win, this one with her older sister and caddie Brittany by her side.

• And Henderson wasn’t the only Canuck to make the nation proud. Fifteen-year-old amateur Aphrodite Deng opened the tourney with six birdies before Calgary’s teen sensation finished in 20th place. The future is oh so bright.

⚖️ Parity continues to define 2025 play: With Henderson’s win, there have now been 23 different winners through 22 events this season, adding extra intrigue to the 60-player CME Group Tour Championship year-end tourney. Henderson earned 500 points for her hometown dub, moving her from 53rd to 26th in the rankings.

• If this parity trend continues, it’s anyone’s guess who’ll be teeing off in Florida at the end of November.
