The 2001 LPGA Championship was the 47th LPGA Championship, played June 21-24 at DuPont Country Club in Wilmington, Delaware.
Karrie Webb won her only LPGA Championship, two strokes ahead of runner-up Laura Diaz, and completed the career grand slam.[1]
Webb, age 26, became the fifth and youngest woman to win the career slam, passing Mickey Wright, who completed hers at age 27 in 1962.[1] It was the fourth of Webb's seven major titles. With a 7-under 64 on Friday, she set the 36-hole scoring record at the LPGA Championship at 131 (−11).[2]
The DuPont Country Club hosted this championship for eleven consecutive seasons, from 1994 through 2004.
