Canadian amateur Aphrodite Deng, Mexico's Gaby Lopez, and Megan Khang of the United States shared the clubhouse lead in the first round of the CPKC Women's Open.

They all shot 5-under 66 rounds in the morning wave at Mississauga Golf and Country Club.

The 15-year-old Deng was born in Calgary and her family lived in Montreal before moving to New Jersey for her dad's work.

She mostly lives in Orlando, Fla., now but remains a Canadian citizen and plays for Golf Canada's junior program.

Khang's only LPGA Tour win came at the Women's Open in 2023 when Vancouver's Shaughnessy Golf & Country Club hosted the national women's golf championship.

Several of the biggest names in women's golf, including Brooke Henderson of Smiths Falls, Ont., teed off in the afternoon.
