The LPG Kraft Nabisco Championship Rancho Mirage CA

Mission Hills Country Club in Rancho Mirage CA will once again play host to the LPGA golf tournament known previously[caption id="attachment_2494" align="alignright" width="95"] 2013 Kraft Nabisco Championship[/caption] as the Dinah Shore April 1-7, 2013.

All the biggest names in Womens' Golf will be coming to the Palm Springs area where the temperatures are predicted to be in the 80's! I think we will be making some people up north a little jealous with those temps. Some might even be tempted to buy a home for sale in Rancho Mirage.

Tickets start at $15 and children and active Duty Military familes get in free!

100 Plus women golfers from all over the world will be here and there simply isn't enough space to list them all here - this video however, gives some fun insights into some of the Ladies and the many countries they represent.
