ANA INSPIRATION, Formerly Known as Kraft Nabisco Championship

Rancho Mirage, California, March 29, 2015 The 44th edition of the ANA Inspiration – previously known as the Dinah Shore and the Kraft Nabisco – takes flight next week in the LPGA’s first major of 2015.

The best field of the season is set to descend on one of the LPGA’s most iconic venues at Mission Hills Country Club, which has played host to the Tour since 1972 and to the first major of the season since 1983. Lexi Thompson is primed to defend her first major championship title following her three-shot victory and leap into Poppie’s Pond – a tradition set to continue in 2015 and beyond – last April. She will face a formidable list of opponents again this year including top-ranked American and 2011 champion Stacy Lewis, 2014 U.S. Women’s Open winner Michelle Wie and world No. 1 Lydia Ko, who has amassed six LPGA victories at the age of 17.
