The 1984 Nabisco Dinah Shore was a women's professional golf tournament, held April 5–8 at Mission Hills Country Club in Rancho Mirage, California. This was the thirteenth edition of the ANA Inspiration, and the second as a major championship. With a purse of $400,000 and a winner's share of $55,000, this was the richest event in women's golf in 1984. [2] [3]

Juli Inkster, 23, won the first of her seven major titles in a sudden-death playoff over Pat Bradley, with a par on the first extra hole. [2] [3] [4] It was Inkster's second win on tour; she turned professional eight months earlier and won the Safeco Classic near Seattle in September 1983. [2] [5]

Defending champion Amy Alcott finished at even par 288, eight strokes back in a tie for tenth. [2] [3]
