The 2013 Kraft Nabisco Championship was the 42nd Kraft Nabisco Championship, held April 4–7 at the Dinah Shore Tournament Course of Mission Hills Country Club in Rancho Mirage, California. In its 31st year as a major championship, Inbee Park won her second major title, four strokes ahead of runner-up So Yeon Ryu.[2][3]

It was the first of Park's three consecutive major victories in 2013; the first to win the opening three majors of a season since Babe Zaharias in 1950.[4]

For the first time as a major, a defending champion missed the cut: Sun-Young Yoo was at 153 (+9).
