About the CPKC Women's Open

Globally recognized and named LPGA Tournament of the Year in 2022 and 2023, the annual CPKC Women’s Open showcases the brightest stars of the LPGA Tour.

In 2024, CPKC Women’s Open helped Canadian Pacific Kansas City (CPKC) raise a record $4.3 million for heart health in Alberta, with $3.8 million to the Alberta Children’s Hospital Foundation and $507,000 to the Red Deer Regional Health Foundation.  

 

Since 2014, CPKC has helped raise more than $22 million for children’s heart health as the title sponsor of the CPKC Women’s Open.  2024's total donation, the biggest in the CPKC title sponsorship’s history, is the result of several fundraising efforts of the CPKC Has Heart campaign. Through CPKC Birdies for Heart, CPKC contributed for each birdie made by Earl Grey Golf Club members prior to the tournament and $5,000 for each birdie made by LPGA players on the 14th hole during championship tournament play at Earl Grey. CPKC also matched donations made during Alberta Children’s Hospital Foundation campaign online in February 2024 in honour of Heart Month.

Meet Lauren Migliarese – 2024 CPKC Women’s Open Charity Ambassador

On the day Lauren was born, doctors noticed she was struggling to breathe and showed heart abnormalities. She was soon diagnosed with pulmonary atresia - in her case, the valve that let blood out of her heart to go to her lungs was only half as wide as it should have been.

 

She required corrective surgery at one day old, and then an additional major surgery when she was five months old to rewire her heart to maintain proper blood flow through the years of growth to come.

 

Now 14, Lauren has been followed closely over her entire life by her cardiologist at the Alberta Children’s Hospital. Monitored every nine months with an echocardiogram and ECG, her team keeps a close eye on her heart so she can continue to play volleyball and maintain her active lifestyle.

 

In the next two years, Lauren will be entering a transition phase of her care to introduce her to new specialists and services in adult cardiac care in Calgary. Funded in part by proceeds from the 2016 CP Women’s Open in Calgary, this two-year program ensures young people are fully educated about their condition and empowered to recognize the signs of potential heart problems as they enter adulthood.

 

Researchers at the Alberta Children’s Hospital Research Institute believe there is potential to develop a routine blood test to provide earlier detection of congenital heart defects or other anomalies at birth so parents like Lauren’s can be prepared in advance. Identifying these problems sooner leads to better prenatal care and the opportunity for life-saving interventions. 

 

“We’ve been so grateful for the care Lauren and our entire family have received on this journey,” says Traci, Lauren’s mother. “However, knowing ahead of time that we’d be walking this road would have made those early months so much easier to navigate. How wonderful that the CPKC Women’s Open is supporting this innovative research that has the potential to change prenatal care here and around the world!”
