 This week's Kraft Nabisco Championship is the second Winner Event of LPGA Playoffs 2008. The winner of the Kraft Nabisco Championship will earn an automatic invite to the season-ending ADT Championship, Nov. 20-23, at Trump International Golf Club in West Palm Beach, Fla. Rolex Rankings' number one Lorena Ochoa became the first 2008 ADT Championship qualifier by capturing the 2008 HSBC Women's Champions title.
The LPGA Playoffs 2008, a yearlong competitive structure that splits the official LPGA season into two halves, culminates at the ADT Championship. Fifteen players from each half qualify for the ADT Championship, and two additional wildcards will be determined following the Lorena Ochoa Invitational Presented by Banamex and Corona. Out of the 32 spots in the ADT Championship, 13 will be awarded to winners of Winner Events, which are defined as official LPGA Tour events with a purse of at least $2 million. The remaining spots in each half will be awarded using a performance-based points system - ADT Points - to determine ADT Championship qualifiers who are not otherwise qualified.
The 2008 ADT Championship features a limited field of 32 of the best LPGA players and a $1,550,000 purse, with the winner taking home a $1 million paycheck, the largest first-place prize in the history of women's golf.
