Annika Sörenstam won in a playoff over Grace Park with a par on the first sudden death hole. It was the first of three consecutive LPGA Championships for Sorenstam and the fifth of her ten major titles.

Two weeks earlier, Sörenstam played against men at the Colonial, a PGA Tour event in Fort Worth, Texas.

The DuPont Country Club hosted this championship for eleven consecutive seasons, from 1994 through 2004.

Playoff

The sudden-death playoff began on the par-4 18th hole, where Park missed the green, chipped from the heavy rough to 12 feet (4 m) but failed to save par. Sörenstam had a 20-foot (6 m) for birdie, then tapped in for par to win.

  • Sudden-death playoff played on hole 18.
