The 2012 Kraft Nabisco Championship was played at Mission Hills Country Club in Rancho Mirage, California, from March 29 through April 1. It was the 41st edition of the Kraft Nabisco Championship and its 30th year as a women's major.

On the 72nd hole, I.K. Kim had a one-foot (0.3 m) putt to seal her first major title. The putt lipped out, forcing a playoff with Sun-Young Yoo, who also shot 69 in the final round.[2] Yoo won the sudden-death playoff with a birdie on the first extra hole.[3] Yani Tseng, the 2010 champion, missed the playoff by a stroke; defending champion Stacy Lewis finished two strokes back, in a tie for fourth.
