The first women's Major was held at the Women's Western Open in 1930. There have been different versions of the tournaments that are afforded Major status and, since 2014, we now have five – the Chevron Championship, US Women's Open, Women's PGA Championship, the Evian Championship and the Women's Open.
There have been many name changes but the US Women's Open remains the grandest of the five and, like the men's game, three are held in the United States.
