This will take place Aug. 22-25 at Magna GC in Aurora, Ontario. The Monday qualifier will be at Scarborough Golf & CC on August 19...they usually accept four players from that...only ten have signed up so far...mostly Hab scrubs plus Suzuka Yamaguchi and Olafia K.
***********
The 2020 CP Women's Open site was announced this month: Shaughnessy Golf and CC in Vancouver. It has hosted the men's Canadian Open in the past.
Jaclyn Lee said she has used the practice facilities here, but never played the course.

Cool that it's coming to a new course in Vancouver. That one is over down by the airport I think. Not far from a heavily Asian area, Richmond. I wonder what the turnout will be like?

jumpcutKelly Tan has entered Monday Qualifier which's scheduled on August 19. Kelly is No. 165 on reshuffled priority list; Suzuka Yamaguchi, No. 157 has also registered. Muni He, No. 162, hasn't registered. Either she's received a sponsor invite or she'll register later.

A lot of Korean golfers used to come down from Vancouver to play at the Legacy Resort. I hardly seen any thou the last two years. I was impressed because the Lady golfers played the back tees, @ over 7000 yards.

Whan wants 150 ECPs. And he trotted out his 39-week line again...at least it's not about learning Jin Young Ko's name this time. www.cbc.ca/sports/golf/lpga-exposure-pay-gap-1.5249606LPGA commissioner: 'If I had 150 Brooke Hendersons, I could own the sporting world' Whan said, "If you give me 39 weeks on (network) TV, I'll close the gap on viewership in a long way, and if I close the gap on viewership I'll close the difference in purses and pay.

We've Brooke Henderson in Canada; Hinako Shibuno in Japan; Jin Young Ko, Sung Hyun Park, Lucky 6, Inbee Park and In Gee Chun in Korea; Lexi, Michelle, Nelly and Jessica in the US; Ariya and Moriya in Thailand; Georgia and Charley in England; the list go on and on. Whan doesn't need to worry about 150 Brooke Henderson's; he already has a handful more than he can handle. If He can't do anything with what he's on hand; more dreaming won't change anything.

He was talking to the Canadian press, so of course he’s going to hype Brooke Henderson.

The article even says: "A second Canadian tournament — the Manulife LPGA Classic based in Ontario's Kitchener-Waterloo area — lasted six years before losing its sponsor in 2017. Five of those tournaments had Henderson in the field, suggesting her stardom alone might not be enough to sustain a second LPGA Tour date in Canada." But it doesn't matter a whit to Whan, who decides we need 150 of her. Sometimes it feels like there ARE 150 of her, with all the attention she gets.
