The Women's PGA Championship is an annual golf competition held in June, and is conducted by the Professional Golfers Association of America (PGA). The event was established in 1955, and is one of the five women's major championships played each year; the others are the ANA Inspiration, the U.S. Women's Open, the Women's British Open, and the Evian Championship. This event has always been conducted in stroke play competition, and is always the second women's major of the year. The first year was played with three rounds of stroke play and a final round of match play to determine the final places (36 holes for the championship, 18 holes for other matches) in order to distribute prize money. The trophy, formally known as the "LPGA Championship Trophy" is presented to the champion every year, with each recipient being awarded a replica of the trophy to keep.
Mickey Wright holds the record for the most victories with four. Annika Sörenstam has the record for most consecutive wins with three. The lowest score for 72 holes on a par 71 golf course is Betsy King's 267, 17-under par in 1992, and on a par 72 golf course is Cristie Kerr's and Yani Tseng's 269, 19-under par in 2010 and 2011 respectively. The LPGA Championship has had eleven wire-to-wire champions on twelve different occasions: Beverly Hanson in 1955, Wright in 1958 and 1961, Judy Kimball in 1962, Kathy Whitworth in 1967, Sandra Post in 1968, Jan Stephenson in 1982, Nancy Lopez in 1985, King in 1992, Se Ri Pak in 1998, Kerr in 2010, and Tseng in 2011.
