Dinah Shore Tourn. Course |USA |USA California Mirage The 2003 Kraft Nabisco Championship was a women's professional golf tournament, held March 27–30 at Mission Hills Country Club in Rancho Mirage, California. This was the 32nd edition of the Kraft Nabisco Championship, and the 21st edition as a major championship.

Patricia Meunier-Lebouc won her only major title, one stroke ahead of runner-up Annika Sörenstam, the two-time defending champion. Meunier-Lebouc was the leader by three strokes after 54 holes, but hit a tee shot out of bounds early in the final round, but regained the lead after a birdie at the 13th hole. Ahead by two strokes on the final hole, she played conservatively and three-putted for a bogey and the win.

The low amateur was 13-year-old Michelle Wie at even par, seven strokes back in a tie for ninth. After a 66 on Saturday to climb up to third place, she dropped back with a 76 on Sunday.

At this time, Sörenstam had won four of her ten major titles. In late May, she became the first woman to play in a PGA Tour event in 58 years. It was at the Colonial in Fort Worth, Texas, and she missed the cut by four strokes.
