Female MyPlayers

The World Series of Poker (WSOP) remains the ultimate poker festival. But with 100 events on the WSOP schedule, it’s incredibly easy to lose track of shifting chip counts, sudden eliminations, and deep runs when trying to wade through standard tournament updates.

This summer, that hassle is a thing of the past. With the launch of the new PokerNews MyPlayers feed, you can completely customize your WSOP experience, curating a personalized, real-time timeline dedicated entirely to the specific players you want to sweat.

Women are entering the 2026 series in blistering, historic form. More and more players are sporting massive high-roller cashes from early-year stops like Triton Jeju and titles on the PokerGO Tour.

To ensure you don't miss a single crucial hand or final table run from this elite contingent, here are ten remarkable female pros you need to add to your MyPlayers feed today.

Cherish Andrews

Cherish Andrews enters the 2026 WSOP riding immense wave of momentum, and here at PokerNews we've already tipped her for a breakout summer at this year's World Series of Poker.

Already a three-time WSOP Circuit ring winner, she recently took down Event #3 at the 2026 U.S. Poker Open for $117,407, securing her second career PokerGO Tour (PGT) title. Poker fans should add her to their MyPlayers feed to track a proven closer who has a knack for deep runs and final table appearances when it matters most.

Kristen Foxen

Kristen Foxen is quite simply a high-stakes crusher and one of the most decorated players in modern poker history. The five-time GPI Female Player of the Year has already found immense success early this year, outlasting a elite field in April to win Event #4 at the 2026 U.S. Poker Open for $198,000.

Foxen is looking to extend her record as the ultimate female bracelet winner. We've already included Foxen in our top players to add to your MyPlayers feed this WSOP, so consider this your second recommendation!

Leo Margets

Spain's Leo Margets secured her place in poker history last summer with a truly legendary performance, becoming the first woman in 30 years to reach the WSOP Main Event final table.

Outlasting nearly 10,000 players to finish 7th for $1.5 million, the Winamax Team Pro proved she can thrive under the absolute highest pressure the poker world has to offer.

Already a bracelet winner, Margets enters the 2026 series with her confidence at an all-time high and the eyes of the entire poker community on her. Tracking her on the MyPlayers feed is essential for anyone wanting to watch a world-class veteran who has mastered the art of navigating the world's most prestigious marathon fields.

Jessica Teusl

Austria's Jessica Teusl has long proved that she belongs on poker's biggest stage, famously capturing the $1,000 Ladies Championship bracelet in 2022.

That year she also finished eighth in the 6,501-player Monster Stack, but since then has flourished on the world poker stage. Teusl has been a regular in the Triton Poker Invitational but is still looking for a major breakthrough score. Could it come at the 2026 WSOP?

Ebony Kenney

A fan favorite and high-stakes regular, Ebony Kenney will be back in action at this year's WSOP, chasing a WSOP bracelet, something she told PokerNews back in 2013 was one of her ultimate poker goals.

Back in 2024, Kenney came the closest she's ever come to a bracelet with a tenth-place finish at The Closer in WSOP Paradise. But with a pair of six-figure Triton cashes since then, Kenney could make some deep runs and feature heavily in your MyPlayers feed.

Shiina Okamoto

Shiina Okamoto has put on an absolute masterclass of dominance at the World Series of Poker over the last few years.

After finishing as the runner-up in the $1,000 Ladies Championship in 2023, the Japanese standout went on to pull off the incredible feat of winning back-to-back Ladies Championship titles in 2024 and 2025. Now acting as a prominent GTO Wizard Ambassador, Okamoto has shown she can play elite poker anywhere, recently securing a deep 37th-place cash at the WSOP Europe Main Event in Prague.

She is an essential follow on the MyPlayers feed as she returns to Vegas to see if she can extend her historic summer run.

Natasha Mercier

Natasha Mercier had to play some of the absolute best poker of her career to end 2025, after a 6th-place finish in the $25,000 Super Main Event at WSOP Paradise saw her walk away with a career-high $1.8 million payday.

Known for her aggressive table presence and sharp instincts, the Super Main Event saw her battle against an incredibly tough field to secure a landmark score. Who's to say Mercier isn't one summer away from adding a gold bracelet to her poker resume?

Kathy Liebert

Poker Hall of Fame nominee Kathy Liebert is a true legend of the game. With a WSOP gold bracelet and millions in lifetime earnings stretching back over decades, "PokerKat" continues to show up at the WSOP.

And this year she looks to be in prime form, notching a victory in the early days of the Wynn Summer Classic. Liebert’s veteran presence and deep tournament experience mean she can never be counted out in any event she enters. MyPlayers will give you a front-row seat to see she can make history with another title-winning run.

Kyna England

Kyna England has proven time and again that she is one of the most resilient and tactical players on the domestic tournament circuit.

Since bursting into the poker consciousness with a massive breakout season a few years ago, England has consistently racked up deep runs and final tables across the United States including on the MSPT and NAPT.

Tracking her on the MyPlayers feed is an excellent choice for fans who want to root for a highly relatable and incredibly sharp competitor.

Esther Taylor

Esther "E-Tay" Taylor is widely respected by her peers as an exceptionally versatile mixed-game and No-Limit specialist. Last year, she became only the second woman to final table the prestigious $50,000 Poker Players Championship, finishing third for $595,136.

In a summer series where versatility is heavily rewarded, Taylor is a prime candidate to make a deep, multi-game run. Be sure to add her to your MyPlayers feed to track an elite mixed-game threat who is fiercely hunting down her well-deserved first WSOP gold bracelet.
