After three days of play and a record-setting field of 1,475 entries, six women remain in the 2026 WSOP Ladies Championship.
It's been a weekend of fan favorites, with plenty of opportunity for new faces to step into the spotlight.
The third day of the tournament welcomed 48 players back for a run at the final table. Gone now are Angela Jordison and Cherish Andrews, who both fell when the tournament hit its final three tables.
Former champions Svetlana Gromenkova and Jessica Teusl are gone, too, along with Lexy Gavin-Mather. All three fell agonizingly short of the final table of nine.
But six remain, and each of them is seeking a first WSOP title. Let's meet the final six:
WSOP rookie paces field
Emily Spencer - 10,290,000 (85bb)
Career earnings: $56,148
Emily Spencer is a relative newcomer, but she has picked up a lot of experience in a short amount of time. Her first cash was in March 2025, a fourth-place finish at a daily tournament in Los Angeles, and Spencer has been consistently bursting the money bubble since.
Spencer's first WSOP cash came just last week in the Salute to Warriors championship, and she's already guaranteed a new high score with the $37,192 min-cash.
Skye Chen - 5,450,000 (45bb)
Career earnings: N/A
Skye Chen has no known Hendon Mob results, and this is her first WSOP cash. However, that did not stop her from crushing the field on Saturday. A lot of her chips can be traced back to a crucial double knockout with three tables left, when her 
flopped a straight and busted both Angela Jordison and Lilach West.
Lisa Teebagy - 5,360,000 (44bb)
Career earnings: $530,488
Lisa Teebagy is the most experienced player in the final six, with a poker resume that dates back to May of 2008. She has cashed in this event twice, with a 14th-place finish in 2010 and a 66th-place run in 2025.
The Florida native plays a lot of tournaments in her home state, with several wins at Seminole, Pompano Beach, and anywhere else in Florida that will spread a game. Her career high is a $40K runner-up finish in a $1K at last year's Wynn Summer Classic, and Teebagy can beat that after just one elimination on Sunday.
Victoria Ailloud - 3,895,000 (32bb)
Career earnings: $136,494
France's Victoria Ailloud is the only non-American at the final table, and this is her second cash of the summer series. Her first, the only other WSOP cash on her resume, was in the $800 Deepstack a couple of weeks ago. Ailloud has been building a poker resume since February of 2023, and since then, she has 45 entries from all over Italy and France.
Ailloud's biggest score, a $21K win at the Unibet DeepStack Open in July of 2024, is among several impressive five-figure performances in a short period of time. She has two runner-up finishes on the WSOP International Circuit, both coming at stops in Sanremo.
Aubrey Williams - 2,660,000 (22bb)
Career earnings: $369,125
Aubrey Williams, who has shown nothing but class and professionalism at every step of her poker career, faced a wave of ugly bigotry on the internet and in the livestream chatrooms throughout the first two days of the tournament. None of it, however, has come from her fellow competitors, who have shown endless support both in person and online.
Williams, a transgender woman, has shaken off internet trolls to shine in the 2026 Ladies Championship. "The internet's not a real place," she told writer Connor Richards on Day 3. She was right.
It's a resolve that has been there since well before we profiled Williams back in 2024, when she opened up about her experiences in and out of poker with Paul Oresteen.
Williams has a previous best finish of $52K in a BetMGM Hybrid tournament. A fourth-place finish would set a new watermark.
Caitlin Comeskey - 1,780,000 (14bb)
Career earnings: $371,814
Last, and certainly not least, is Caitlin Comeskey. The venerable comedy-poker hybrid has some work to do on Sunday, but she can definitely do it. Comeskey has cashed at the 2026 WSOP four times already, and she won a Deuce tournament over at Aria at the end of May. She's starting to play more mixed games, but they'll have to wait for now as she chases her first WSOP bracelet in no-limit hold'em.
Comeskey's previous best was a runner-up finish in 2022 at The Lodge in Austin for $60K. She had another one of those a few months later, and she nearly cracked the PokerStars Open High Roller in Philly last year. It's a matter of time before Comeksey gets the big win.
All six players return for the final day at 3:30pm local time on Sunday, with a livestream to follow later. They're all playing for the top prize of $194,630, and perhaps more importantly, a first WSOP bracelet.
