Alena Sharp isn’t done just yet.

The 44-year-old is playing in her 20th CPKC Women’s Open this week at Mississaugua Golf and Country Club. Although Sharp has been through some rough seasons the past couple of years, she feels her time on the LPGA Tour isn’t over.

“I thought maybe this would be my last year. Well, I don’t want to end like this, but I still have a few events left,” she said at a news conference on Wednesday, noting that next year she would qualify for the senior tour. “I want to get better every day. I still love the game. Maybe don’t love the travel as much as I used to because it tires me out more, but I still love to play.

“I think you get a sign and I’m just not ready to go done yet.”

Sharp made her Women’s Open debut 21 years ago at Legends on the Niagara in Niagara Falls, Ont., and she still remembers playing a practice round with World Golf Hall of Famer Juli Inkster of the United States and getting to play alongside Canadian Golf Hall of Famer Gail Graham of Vanderhoof, B.C.

“I played the Epson Tour a few week ago and it was an event with the senior tour and Epson,” said Sharp. “Again, played a practice round with Juli Inkster, saw Gail Graham, saw a lot of people that as a rookie I was playing with.

“They looked like they were having fun. Didn’t look as cutthroat, playing 6,000 yards, probably can’t hit driver very much. It’s a nice option to keep things light.”

Although Sharp says she doesn’t really feel her age, being around “all the young kids” on the LPGA Tour sometimes underscores how long she’s been playing. 

There are 16 Canadians in the field at this year’s national open, including 10 amateurs either trying to reach the NCAA or already playing U.S. collegiate golf.

Sixteen-year-old Anna Huang of Vancouver will be in a group with Sharp on Thursday and Friday. Huang turned pro in January.

Twenty-three-year-old Savannah Grewal of Mississauga, Ont., is the second-highest ranked Canadian on the LPGA Tour this season. She’s 137th on the tour, behind No. 53 Brooke Henderson of Smiths Falls, Ont. 

“I think we’re really lucky with the support we get from Golf Canada,” said Grewal. “We have a great program and I’m excited to see so many up and coming amateurs and young pros now.

“I think Canadian golf is headed in a great direction, so definitely excited to see more Canadians come out and I hope in the future we will have some more girls on the LPGA.”

Sharp, Huang, Grewal and Henderson will be joined by fellow pros Maude-Aimee Leblanc of Sherbrooke, Que., and Monet Chun of Richmond Hill, Ont.

Amateurs Lauren Kim of Surrey, B.C., Calgary’s Aphrodite Deng, Toronto’s Vanessa Borovilos, Michelle Xing of Richmond Hill, Joline Truong of Mississauga, Calgary’s Tillie Claggett, Katie Cranston of Oakville, Ont., Ruihan Wang of Markham, Ont., and Celina Yeo of London, Ont., are also in the field.

Fassi led the field while Wang, Yeo and Truong earned their spots through a playoff, after finishing in a six-way tie for three spots following an even par 71.

Gold, silver and bronze medals are up for grabs across individual and team competitions 

ST. JOHN’S, Nfld. – The 2025 Canada Summer Games gets underway this week at Bally Haly Country Club in St. John’s, Nfld. and will feature a field of 44 players, 10 provinces and a territory battle for gold in the tournament’s golf event August 19-22.  

Both a team and individual competition will run concurrently over 72 holes, the former grouping a pair of male and female players from the same province together to battle for medals in a mixed-gender team competition. The lowest score from a player of each gender will represent the team’s total score following the conclusion of each round.  

“We are thrilled to be involved with Canada Summer Games and gather some of our country’s best young talent for four days of competition at the Bally Haly Country Club,” said Daniel Suppa, Tournament Director, Golf Canada. “The Games is a world-class competition, with hospitality and elite performance across multiple sports and we are excited to be part of their delivery of these experiences through the energy and excitement that golf brings to this country.”  

Golf debuted at the Canada Summer Games in 2009 and has featured in every summer program since, fostering a growing list of alumni over the years that currently boasts the likes of five-time RBC Canadian Open participant Eugene Wong and current Team Canada members Myles Creighton, Étienne Papineau, Brigitte Thibault and Monet Chun.  

Team British Columbia (B.C.) will look to defend their top spot on the podium for a second-consecutive Games after clinching gold in the team competition at both the Winnipeg 2017 Canada Summer Games and Niagara 2022 Canada Summer Games. The province’s latest trip to the tournament reeled in a historic performance that saw Team B.C. win gold in all three competitions for the third time in four attempts.  

The defending champions will be represented by Yanling (Elaine) Liu of Vancouver, B.C., Yeeun (Jenny) Kwon of Vancouver, B.C., Alex Zhang of Richmond, B.C. and Austin Krahn of Christina Lakes, B.C. Krahn is a member of Team Canada’s NextGen program and has pocketed a trio of wins this summer ahead of the Summer Games. Liu and Kwon have also garnered wins in 2025, topping the leaderboard at the NextGen Pacific Championship and NextGen Western Championship respectively.  

The group will be rivaled both in their individual and team endeavors by a strong field that includes past provincial winners and experienced competitors making their second appearance at the tournament.  

Carlee Meilleur of Lansdowne, Ont. and Leonie Tavares of Saint-Jérôme, Que. each teed off in the Niagara 2022 Canada Summer Games, the former securing bronze in the women’s individual competition and securing one of three podium finishes for her province. Both players will represent Ontario and Quebec respectively at this year’s Summer Games in St. John’s.  

Other notables on the male front include Spence Mott of Brandon, Man. and Cole Stewart of Fall River, N.S. The two enter the Summer Games with momentum having each claimed a junior championship last month in their home province, including a title for Mott at the 2025 Manitoba Junior Boys Championship and a NextGen Atlantic Championship for Stewart. 

Yukon will be the only territorial representation at the Summer Games and will feature Alayna May Mortimer, Sloane Tarapaski and two brothers: Braylen and Sawyer Tessier. Braylen won the territory’s Junior Golf Championship in 2024 and is the younger brother to Sawyer.   

Additionally, the field will feature a sister duo as Mila and Freya Snook of Portugal Cove, Nfld. who are set to represent Newfoundland and Labrador at this week’s Summer Games. The twins have the rare luxury of playing the 2025 Summer Games at their home course and enter the tournament with more familiarity of the course than any other player in the field. Both have won the Ladies Club Championship at Bally Haly Golf Club in the past in addition to claiming notable awards and honors in their community.  

Bally Haly Country Club will kick off 72 holes of competition on Tuesday, August 19. Throughout the week, players will descend on the property’s South Championship Course, a par-72 course that provides a diverse and dynamic layout through its picturesque natural surroundings.

RBC to continue sponsorship of PGA TOUR Signature Event and golf’s third-oldest national championship in multi-year agreement

PONTE VEDRA BEACH, Florida and TORONTO, Canada – The PGA TOUR and RBC, in partnership with the Heritage Classic Foundation and Golf Canada, today announced a multi-year extension of the bank’s title sponsorship of the RBC Heritage and RBC Canadian Open. RBC is a long-standing supporter of golf at the professional and amateur levels and has been the title sponsor of the RBC Heritage and RBC Canadian Open since 2012 and 2008, respectively.

The 2026 RBC Heritage, a PGA TOUR Signature Event, begins Thursday, April 16 at Harbour Town Golf Links on Hilton Head Island, South Carolina, and the 2026 RBC Canadian Open, Canada’s National Open, will return to TPC Toronto at Osprey Valley in Caledon, Ontario, on Thursday, June 11.

“As the title sponsor of two events on the PGA TOUR schedule, RBC plays an essential role in golf, providing both critical development at the amateur level and life-changing moments for the world’s greatest players,” said PGA TOUR CEO Brian Rolapp. “We are grateful to extend our relationship with RBC, Canada’s national championship at the RBC Canadian Open, as well as the RBC Heritage, the Signature Event culminating across the marina from Harbour Town’s iconic lighthouse.”

Since joining as title sponsor of the RBC Heritage and RBC Canadian Open, RBC has helped contribute to communities in the U.S. and Canada by increasing access to the game and supporting charities in areas such as youth, education, the arts and more. RBC also supports a roster of Team RBC ambassadors on the PGA and LPGA TOUR.

“We are pleased to extend our long-standing relationship with the PGA TOUR, and to continue working with our partners to elevate the RBC Heritage and RBC Canadian Open for players and fans,” said Mary DePaoli, Executive Vice President and Chief Marketing Officer. “The unforgettable moments these events create bring our communities together and inspire golfers at every level, from grassroots to our Team RBC professionals. These world-class tournaments are also becoming powerful drivers of economic and social impact, with more than $56 million raised for local charities across North America, and nearly $250 million of economic impact generated in 2024 alone. We look forward to building on that momentum and continuing to support the lasting impact these events create both on and off the course.”

The RBC Heritage, which made its debut in 1969, ranks annually among the most-attended professional sporting events in the Carolinas. The Heritage Classic Foundation is the host organization of the RBC Heritage and donates tournament proceeds to charitable organizations in the Lowcountry. Recent champions include Justin Thomas, Scottie Scheffler, Matt Fitzpatrick and Jordan Spieth.

“We are thrilled that RBC has extended our partnership, as their continued commitment strengthens our world-class PGA TOUR event on Hilton Head Island and fuels its profound impact across South Carolina,” said Steve Wilmot, Heritage Classic Foundation President and RBC Heritage Tournament Director. “The RBC Heritage is a major economic driver for our state and a powerful force for good. Having a steadfast partner like RBC allows us to grow our mission and deepen our reach, and we look forward to this exciting next chapter together.”

Dating to 1904, the RBC Canadian Open is the third-oldest national championship. Previous champions include Team RBC ambassador Nick Taylor and Rory McIlroy. In partnership with Golf Canada, RBC is committed to growing the game through RBC Community Junior Golf, which has introduced over 55,000 young people across Canada to the sport through First Tee – Canada and Youth on Course programming. RBC is also a proud supporter of Golf Canada’s National Team program, the Golf Canada Foundation, the CPKC Women’s Open and the She Plays Golf Festival.

“Golf Canada is extremely proud to celebrate the extension of a tremendous partnership with our friends at RBC as well as the PGA TOUR,” said Golf Canada CEO Laurence Applebaum. “From investing in access for the next generation of young golfers to supporting pros, RBC is the most committed, invested and engaged partner in Canadian golf, and the driving force behind the incredible growth of Canada’s historic National Open Championship.”

The 2026 RBC Heritage and 2026 RBC Canadian Open will be broadcast on CBS/Paramount+, GOLF Channel, PGA TOUR LIVE on ESPN+, Sirius XM and distributed internationally via the TOUR’s World Feed.

CALGARY – Richard Green birdied the par 5, finishing hole of the Canyon Meadows Golf and Country Club on Sunday to win the 2025 Rogers Charity Classic.

After reaching the 18th green in two, Green two putted for his first-ever PGA Tour Champions event victory in his 71st career start.

The 54-year-old Australian had six birdies and one bogey during his round of 5-under 65 to finish the tournament at 18 under.

Green had five runner-up finishes last year, including at the 2024 edition of the Rogers Charity Classic.

Playing in the group in front of Green, Ricardo Gonzales also birdied the final hole to end the three-day event in second spot at 17 under.

Gonzales finished his round of 5-under 65 on Sunday with four birdies in his final five holes to pull into a tie with Green. The 55-year-old Argentine then watched from the side of the 18th green as Green lagged his lengthy putt to within two feet before making no mistake to take home the title.

Charles Schwab Cup money list leader Miguel Angel Jimenez of Spain also birdied the final hole of the par 70, 7092-yard layout for a round of 68 that left him alone in third spot at 16 under.

Charlie Wi carded a round of 6-under 64 to finish the tournament in fourth at 15 under, while Mark Hensby, Steve Alker, Matt Gogel and Tommy Gainey all ended up in a tie for fifth one shot back of Wi.

Although he had a round of 1-over 71 on Sunday, Calgary’s Wes Martin still finished as the top Canadian at 4 under, which put him in a four-way tie for 38th place.

“It’s a little disappointing with the way it ended today,” said Martin, who earned the right to play at his first-ever PGA Tour Champions event by carding an impressive round of 9-under 62 at the final tournament qualifier last Tuesday at Highwood Golf and Country Club in High River, Alta. “I would have liked to shoot under par today.”

Martin’s round featured four bogeys to go with one birdie and an eagle on the par 5, 11th hole.

“I had a perfect number into the green, hit utility, and then it was just a sidewinder putt that happened to go,” said Martin, who estimated he drained the putt from about 25 feet out. “It was finally something to cheer for, right?”

After shooting 70 and 69 in the first two rounds, Mike Weir of Bright’s Grove, Ont., continued to improve with a 2-under 68 on Sunday to finish the event in a six-way tie for 42nd place at 3 under.

Gordon Burns of Holland Landing, Ont., and former Calgary resident Stephen Ames also shot 68 to finish at 2 under and even par, respectively.

Liu becomes the ninth multi-time winner of the Brokenshire Trophy and first back-to-back winner since Heather Kuzmich in 1982

SAINTE-MARIE, Que. – Shauna Liu came from behind to win her second consecutive Canadian Junior Girls Championship, presented by BDO on Saturday and tied a couple records along the way at Club de golf Sainte Marie in Sainte-Marie, Que.

Liu of Maple, Ont. tied a women’s course record, previously set by 54-hole leader Ruihan Kendria Wang on Wednesday and tied a personal best, as well as the lowest round in tournament history with an 8-under 64, to finish at 10-under and win by four shots. Liu posted rounds of 70-70-74-64=278 to win her fifth title of the year.

“It means so much being able to defend my title. I know it’s not something that happens very often and definitely gives me more confidence,” said Liu after receiving the Brokenshire Trophy for a second consecutive year.

“Playing alongside my teammates and friends the past few days it’s been so fun and on this beautiful course, it’s just been a really good week.”

The Team Canada NextGen teammates battled neck and neck on Saturday making for a thrilling final round in Sainte-Marie. Wang of Vancouver, B.C. opened the day with a one-shot lead on Liu and three on fellow teammate Clairey Lin of Langley, B.C.

Wang pulled further ahead with a birdie on No. 4. Her lead increased again after Liu bogeyed the fifth, giving Wang a three-shot lead. Liu told herself to keep playing her own game.

“I missed a couple putts on the first few holes, and I think I was trying to focus too much on the score so I told myself focus on your own game and play the best you can.”

Liu responded with three birdies on her final four holes of the front nine to pull back to within a shot of Wang, who also recorded birdie on nine.

Liu said she felt the turning point in her round came at the eighth hole where she faced a lengthy look at birdie.

“I sunk a 24-footer there and it was the first putt I actually made,” Liu said with a laugh. “After that putt, on nine, I had a 15-footer, and I was able to sink that too so that gave me a little more confidence that I really needed.”

The battle continued as both players carded birdies on the par-3 11th, before Wang’s bogey on No. 12 evened things with both players sitting at 5-under with six holes to play.

On No, 13 Liu hit her approach shot within 10-feet of the cup but faced a big downhill break for a birdie.

“On that hole, I was mostly trying to get my speed for my putting. I realized throughout this week and on this round a lot of the times I was missing was because of my distance control. So, I was focusing on that and luckily it went in.”

The birdie put Liu ahead and she did not look back, grabbing another on No. 15 to take a two-shot lead. Liu knew that “Wang had an advantage heading to No. 17 and 18 with her length from the tee” so she had to keep pushing forward.

On No. 17 Liu was able to chip close and make the putt for another birdie and opened a three-shot lead with one to play. On 18, Liu slammed the door shut sinking a 21-footer for eagle and the win.

Wang carded a birdie on 18 to post a 3-under 69 and finish as runner-up at 6-under. Lin shot a 1-under 71 to finish third at 1-under for the tournament, marking another impressive finish at the national championship as Lin finished runner-up to Liu in 2024 at Marine Drive Golf Club in Vancouver. Maggie Zhang of Richmond, B.C. finished in fourth at 1-over and Ann-Sophie Bourgault of Gatineau, Que. finished fifth at 3-over.

Liu also claimed the Florence Harvey Trophy (Juvenile division title) for the second consecutive year, with the leaderboard mirroring the Junior division, minus Bourgault who was over the age of eligibility for the Juvenile division.

In addition to winning the national championship, Liu will receive an exemption into the 2026 Canadian Women’s Amateur Championship and the 2026 Canadian Junior Girls Championship and 2026 U.S. Girls’ Junior Championship, if eligible.

Liu becomes the ninth multi-time winner of the Canadian Junior Girls Championship, the fifth two-time winner and the first player to win back-to-back titles since Heather Kuzmich won four in a row from 1981 to 1984. Past multi-time winners also include Canadian Golf Hall of Famers and three-time winners, Sandra Post (1964 – 66) and Gail Harvey Moore (1958-60). Stacey West also won three times (1974, 1976 and 1977). Liu also joins Stollery Family Team Canada Women’s Head Coach Salimah Mussani (1996, 1998) as a two-time champion.

Liu will also be competing in the CPKC Women’s Open next week in Mississauga, Ont. having earned an exemption by winning The Peloton Glencoe Invitational as part of the She Plays Golf Championship Series in Calgary, Alta. in June. The 16-year-old will be making her first LPGA Tour start in Mississauga.

“It’s such an honour to play along side the best in the world, I’m really excited and looking forward to a great week,” said Liu.

On Thursday, Team B.C. won its second consecutive Mary Pyke Trophy, finishing a collective 9-over, four shots ahead of Team Ontario in the Inter-Provincial Team Championship. Team B.C. was represented by Cadence Ko of Richmond, B.C., Emma Kral of Victoria, B.C., and Zhehui Yu of Burnaby, B.C.

Ko led Team B.C. over the two days posting scores of 75-72. Kral’s round of 75 counted on Wednesday, while Yu’s identical score of 75 counted on Thursday making it a total team effort.

Team Ontario, winners in 2022 and 2023, finished as runner-up at 13-over. Team Alberta finished third at 19-over, while Manitoba and Quebec rounded out the top five in the team competition.

The Canadian Junior Girls Championship was first contested in 1955 and operated by the former Canadian Ladies Association (CLGA) until the amalgamation of CLGA and Royal Canadian Golf Association (now Golf Canada) in 2005.

Team Canada NextGen teammates battle on Friday with
defending champion Shauna Liu now one back of the lead

SAINTE-MARIE, Que. –Ruihan Kendria Wang and Shauna Liu each held the individual lead following the opening rounds of the 2025 Canadian Junior Girls Championship, presented by BDO. It seemed as if the duo would enter Saturday as co-leaders, but a birdie on No. 18 put Wang ahead by one heading into the final round at Club de golf Sainte Marie in Sainte-Marie, Que.

The Team Canada NextGen teammates were tied through most of the day at 2-under, until Wang pulled ahead by birding the par-5 closing hole to take a one-shot advantage over the defending champion. Wang of Vancouver, B.C. finished the day with an even par 72, while Liu of Maple, Ont. finished with a 2-over 74. Right behind them is fellow Team Canada NextGen teammate, Clairey Lin of Langley, B.C. who sits even par for the tournament following a 72 on Friday. The trio will be playing together again on Saturday.

“I love playing with them. I love them, they’re so great,” said Wang of her teammates. “I was more focused on my own score and how to get myself lower, but hopefully they drop a little more tomorrow, maybe give myself shorter birdie putts, but I am excited and looking forward to it.”

Liu echoed Wang’s view of being grouped together again alongside her teammates.

“It’s awesome and an honour to be playing with your teammates. We’re such good friends and so close. Even though I’m playing against her, I still want the best for her. It’s really fun and still really competitive but playing with your friends, you’re able to be more relaxed in a way and I am excited for tomorrow.”

Liu began the day with a one-shot lead on Wang and both players traded opening birdies on Friday. Wang dropped a shot on No. 3 before responding with a birdie the very next hole. After Liu double bogeyed the fifth hole, Wang took a two-shot lead but ended up tied with Liu heading into nine following consecutive bogeys on Nos. 7 and 8. Wang would respond yet again, carding a birdie on nine to re-take the lead by one as Liu closed the front nine with four straight pars.

Liu’s run of consecutive pars extended to 11 holes in total on Friday as both players opened their back nine with seven straight pars. On the par-4 17th both Wang and Liu recorded bogey remaining tied until Wang took the lead on 18 to close play.

“Bogey on 17 was really disappointing. I only had 55 yards in, and it was not a great shot from there but I’m really glad I hit a good drive, then got just short of the green to get up and down for birdie on 18,” said the 54-hole leader Wang.

Lin remains in solo third after and up-and-down round with four birdies and four bogeys on Friday. Ann-Sophie Bourgault of Gatineau, Que. is alone in fourth at 2-over while Team Canada NextGen member, Nobelle Park of Oakville, Ont. and Maggie Zhang of Richmond, B.C. are tied for fifth at 4-over. The Juvenile division standings mirror the Junior Championship division, minus Bourgault who is over the age of eligibility in the Juvenile division.

Saturday’s final round will begin at 8 a.m. local time with the final group of Wang, Liu and Lin teeing off at 10:01 a.m.

Dawson Lew fired a 2-under 68 on Friday to claim titles in Junior Boys Championship and Juvenile Boys Championship; Team Ontario wins Inter-Provincial Team Championship  

BATHURST, N.B. – Dawson Lew of Toronto, Ont. became the 12th player to ever capture both the Junior and Juvenile Boys Championship title on Friday to sweep the Canadian Junior Boys Championship, presented by BDO, and add an historic close to a thrilling 72-holes of golf at Gowan Brae Golf & Country Club in Bathurst, N.B. 

The 54-hole leader finished his final round in red figures for the third time this week, with a 2-under 68 to close the tournament with rounds of 66-65-70-68=269, finishing11-under and securing both the Silver Cup (Junior Boys trophy) and Jack Bailey Trophy (Juvenile Boys trophy). Lew is the first player to accomplish the brace since Alex Zhang of Richmond, B.C. in 2023 at North Bay Golf and Country Club in North Bay, Ont. 

“To be etched on both trophies forever it’s a true honour,” said Lew following his round. “Not many people have done this before, and I think it’s a true privilege to have done it this week.” 

His only major setback in the week came on holes 12 and 13, combining to shoot 4-over during his final two rounds to lose ground on the field and allow Oakley Mayner of Kelowna, B.C. to move into contention on both occasions. Following the third round, Lew admitted to straying away from his full commitment to each one of his shots on the two holes, but was able to quickly mitigate the damage with birdies at Nos. 14 and 18 to end his round at even par.  

On Friday, Lew held a four-stroke lead over Mayner approaching the 12th hole, parlaying birdies on Nos. 1, 8 and 10 with eight par putts to get to 12-under. Consecutive bogeys at the par-4 12th and 13th resulted in a three-shot swing against the leader, with Mayner pulling to within one stroke of Lew after converting on his birdie attempt at the 13th.  

Similar to how he responded to adversity on Thursday, Lew rolled in a birdie of his own at the par-five 14th to answer back, gaining another stroke on Mayner after the B.C. native dropped a shot to fall three shots back at 8-under. Another bogey from Mayner at the par-4 16th extended Lew’s advantage to four, with the latter staying in control by rallying four-straight parrs on his way out to claim the first national championship of his career.  

“Going into today, my goal was to be committed to every shot and take every shot with one hundred per cent effort, I think I did a good job of that today,” praised Lew following his round. “After 12 and 13 I just reminded myself to keep playing. I know what my abilities are, and I know I can make a couple birdies coming down the stretch.” 

Lew joins a list of accomplished winners at the Canadian Junior Boys Championship, including Canadian Golf Hall of Famers Doug Silverberg (1950 Champion), George Knudson (1955 Champion), Gary Cowan (1956 Champion) and Doug Roxburgh (1970 Champion), as well as current PGA TOUR stars Nick Taylor and Adam Svensson who each won the tournament in 2006 and 2012 respectively.   

“It’s really special. I know those guys started out here and started out small, gradually became bigger and that’s my goal. To be mentioned in the same sentence as both TOUR winners, I think is really special,” said Lew.  

Friday’s victory secures Lew a spot in both the U.S. Junior Amateur Championship and 121st Canadian Men’s Amateur Championship in 2026. The Toronto native placed fifth individually at the 120th Canadian Men’s Amateur Championship in July and will have the opportunity to make his third appearance at Canada’s oldest amateur sporting event next summer.  

The win also marks Lew’s second domestic title of 2025 and first since edging out his provincial teammate Spencer Shropshire of Ramara, Ont. by a single stroke at the Junior Boys Spring Classic in May. Both victories add to an impressive year from Lew that includes four other individual titles in the United States in addition to capturing both a Willingdon Cup and Junior Inter-Provincial Team Championship trophy for Team Ontario at the Canadian Men’s Amateur Championship and Canadian Junior Boys Championship respectively.  

Lew’s rounds of 66 and 65 throughout the opening 36 holes of this week’s Inter-Provincial Team Championship helped clinch Team Ontario a four-stroke win over Team British Columbia (B.C.) and land their third title in as many years. The squad was represented by Lew, Shropshire and Andy Dai of Markham, Ont., with the trio nabbing their Inter-Provincial Team Championship on Thursday afternoon after inclement weather delayed the second round of the Canadian Junior Boys Championship.

PORTLAND, Ore. — Two-time champion Brooke Henderson birdied all four par-5 holes for a 7-under 65 on Thursday in The Standard Portland Classic, leaving the slumping Canadian a stroke behind first-round leader Adela Cernousek.

Henderson of Smiths Falls, Ont., won the first of her 13 LPGA Tour titles in 2015 by eight strokes at Columbia Edgewater at age 17, and successfully defended the following year. Now 27, she’s winless since January 2023 and has dipped to 52nd in the world.

“I love coming back to this place,” Henderson said. “I do have a lot of the great memories. A lot of good things happened to me here.”

She opened her morning round with four straight birdies, two on par 5s. On her second nine, she birdied the par-5 fifth and seventh and the par-4 ninth.

“It’s really important to hit a bunch of fairways this week,” Henderson said. “You want to be hitting it really straight. I think I only missed two fairways today, so that was good. Hopefully, hit them all tomorrow.”

Next week, Henderson will be back home in Canada for the CPKC Women’s Open in Mississauga, Ont. She won the national championship in 2018.

Savannah Grewal, from Mississauga, shot 69 on Thursday, while Hamilton’s Alena Sharp had a 73 and Vancouver’s Kaylee Chung had a 76. 

Cernousek shot a 65 in the final group of the day off the 10th tee. The 22-year-old Frenchwoman played her final nine holes in 7-under 29 — highlighted by an eagle on No. 7.

“I was hitting the ball very well,” Cernousek said.

Sung Hyun Park was a stroke back with Henderson, Jeongeun Lee5, Gurleen Kaur and Miranda Wang. Park had eight birdies and a bogey in her afternoon round on the tree-lined course. The 31-year-old South Korean player won the last of her seven tour titles in 2019.

“As of late, my ball-striking and putting are starting to feel quite comfortable and that’s exactly what happened today,” Park said. “I was able to make confident swings and also feel great about the strokes I made on the greens.”

Haeran Ryu two strokes back at 66 with Perrine Delacour, Arpichaya Yubol, Ashleigh Buhai and Linn Grant. Ryu, at No. 9 in the world, and No. 7 Angel Yin — who shot a 72 — are the only players from the top 10 in the world ranking in the field.

Amateur Kiara Romero had a 67. The University of Oregon star won the 2023 U.S. Girls’ Junior and 2025 Big Ten title.

“Everything was rolling pretty smoothly,” Romero said. “I was a little bit nervous on the first tee, but still played pretty good.”

Juli Inkster, the 65-year-old Hall of Famer who won the 1999 event, birdied three of the par 5s in a 69.

“I actually thought I putted really well today,” Inkster said. “Hit a lot of good irons and I drove the ball well. I was happy with that.”

She played alongside 2017 champion Stacy Lewis and 2019 winner Hannah Green, who each shot 73. Defending champion Moriya Jutanugarn also had a 73.
