The 2026 World Series of Poker (WSOP) Ladies Championship has reached a pivotal juncture, with the field now whittled down to the final 48 competitors. As Day 3 play contunies today, June 27, 2026, the remaining players are grinding toward the coveted final table, each eyeing the substantial $1,298,000 prize pool.
The Frontrunners
At the top of the leaderboard, Aubrey Williams and Shannon Fahey currently share the lead, both sitting in a dead heat with 1,665,000 chips.
Notable Contenders
The current leaderboard features several formidable professionals who have successfully navigated the massive 1,475-player field:
-
Cherish Andrews: A titan of the felt, Andrews is a former Global Poker Index Female Player of the Year and a WSOP bracelet winner.
-
Lexy Gavin-Mather: A respected coach, vlogger, and professional player known for her technical proficiency, Gavin-Mather is a mainstay on the tournament circuit with nearly $900,000 in career live earnings.
-
Angela Jordison: A consistent performer and formidable tournament threat, Jordison has built a strong reputation as a “clutch” player, recently notching major wins on the MSPT circuit.
-
Jessica Teusl: As the 2022 WSOP Ladies Championship bracelet winner, Teusl brings championship-level experience to the field. With over $1 million in total career earnings, she is well-positioned to make a deep run for a second title.
Tournament Outlook
The remaining players are returning today to begin Day 3 at Level 21, with blinds at 10,000/20,000 and a 20,000 ante. The average stack is approximately 614,583 chips. While Williams and Fahey hold stacks roughly 2.71 times the average, the distribution within the top 20 confirms that this is far from a runaway. With the twentieth-place stack sitting at 582,000, there is a wide range of stacks in play, and the narrow gap between the leaders and the immediate chasers suggests that the lead could shift rapidly as the day progresses.
For the field, the path is clear: survive the day and secure a seat at the final table. With the growth of the WSOP Ladies Championship continuing to shatter expectations, this year’s winner will be etching their name into a tournament that has become a premier showcase for women’s poker on the global stage.
