The 2014 LPGA Championship was the 60th LPGA Championship, held August 14âÂÂ17 at Monroe Golf Club in Pittsford, New York, a suburb southeast of Rochester. Known for sponsorship reasons as the Wegmans LPGA Championship, it was the fourth of five major championships on the LPGA Tour during the 2014 season. This was the first LPGA Championship played at Monroe Golf Club, after four years at nearby Locust Hill Country Club.
Defending champion Inbee Park won her second LPGA Championship, defeating runner-up Brittany Lincicome on the first hole of a sudden-death playoff for her fifth major title. Park was the first to win consecutive LPGA Championship titles in nine years, last accomplished by Annika Sörenstam, who won her third straight in 2005. Park's win the previous year at Locust Hill was also in a playoff.
This was the final year as the LPGA Championship, which became the "KPMG Women's PGA Championship" in 2015, conducted by the PGA of America.
The course was designed by Donald Ross and opened in 1924.
