The 2019 Women's PGA Championship (branded as the 2019 KPMG Women's PGA Championship for sponsorship reasons) was the 65th Women's PGA Championship, played June 20–23 at Hazeltine National Golf Club in Chaska, Minnesota. It was the third of five major championships on the LPGA Tour during the 2019 season.
Australian Hannah Green won by one stroke over defending champion Park Sung-hyun, in her first victory in both a women's major and the LPGA Tour. It was the first wire-to-wire win at the Women's PGA Championship since Yani Tseng in 2011 and the first major win by an Australian since Karrie Webb at the 2006 Kraft Nabisco Championship.[1]
