Along with the Masters Tournament at Augusta, the Kraft Nabisco Championship has enjoyed the longest continuous run of any Major. This LPGA tournament was founded by Dinah Shore and today the $2,000,000 purse attracts the top lady golfers in the world to the California desert each spring to duel it out for the championship and opportunity to take the winners leap into Poppie’s Pond. This is Rancho Mirage’s signature event and the town pulls out all the stops to welcome the players, international media and visitors from all over the world.

Balmy weather, palm trees glistening, snow capped mountain peeks in the distance, and gorgeous young lady golfers driving down immaculately maintained fairways playing some of the best golf in the world – what more could you ask for!

This year’s Kraft Nabisco Championship tournament plays out March 29 – April 4 at the renowned Mission Hills County Club in Rancho Mirage, home to the Tournament for 39 years. You can buy tickets at www.KNCgolf.com and join the gallery.
