This was the 25th edition of the event as a major championship and the total purse was $2 million, with a winner's share of $300,000.

Morgan Pressel shot a bogey-free 69 in the final round to win her only major title, one stroke ahead of runners-up Brittany Lincicome, Catriona Matthew, and 54-hole co-leader Suzann Pettersen.

[5][6][7] The low amateur was collegian Stacy Lewis, a redshirt junior at Arkansas who carded a final round 70 (−2) and finished two strokes behind, in a four-way tie for fifth.

[9] Pettersen, 25, co-led with Se Ri Pak after the third round at 212 (−4)[10] and had a four-stroke lead with four holes to play on Sunday.

Pressel's win vaulted her thirteen places in the world rankings, from seventeenth[8] to a career-high fourth.
