In strong winds, Amy Alcott won the third of her five major titles, two strokes ahead of runners-up Kathy Whitworth and Beth Daniel, the leader after each of the first three rounds.[2][3][4] Alcott won the title again in 1988 and 1991.
It was the richest tournament in women's golf in 1983;[2] the $400,000 purse was double that of the 1983 U.S. Women's Open. The final round attendance in 1983 was over 20,000,[4] and this was the first year that amateurs were invited;[2] two made the cut and future major winner Kathy Baker was the low amateur.[5]
The previous year's champion, Sally Little, finished at 303 (+15), 21 strokes back in a tie for 44th place.[3][5]
