The 2009 Kraft Nabisco Championship was played at Mission Hills Country Club in Rancho Mirage, California, on April 2–5, 2009. This was the 38th edition of the Kraft Nabisco Championship and the 27th as a women's major golf championship.
Brittany Lincicome, age 23, eagled the final hole to win her first major, one stroke ahead of runner-up Cristie Kerr;[1] it was her third career victory on the LPGA Tour. Down a stroke, Lincicome's second shot at the 485-yard (443 m) par-5 18th hole stopped within four feet (1.3 m) of the flagstick and she sank the putt.[1] Defending champion Lorena Ochoa finished eight strokes back, in a tie for twelfth place.[2]
