The 2014 LPGA Championship will be held at Monroe Golf Club in Pittsford, New York, for the first time ever. This is just the fourth different venue for the major tournament in the past 20 years, so it will be interesting to see how the top stars in women's golf adjust to the new course.

Inbee Park is the defending champion, and last season, she won three of the four traditional LPGA major titles. But Park is winless at the majors this year, while the likes of young stars Lexi Thompson and Michelle Wie have broken through in the first two majors of the current campaign.

Park was more competitive at the Women's British Open but settled for fourth behind unlikely winner Mo Martin.

Unfortunately, Wie won't be able to compete this week, due to a finger injury. ESPN.com's Mechelle Voepel reported what Wie said in a statement: "I was looking forward to playing the next three weeks. It's honestly one of my favorite stretches on tour. It's extremely disappointing to miss these events, but I am relieved to have a proper diagnosis."

Golf Channel provided updates on Wie's condition and her status for the future:



As for the marquee names teeing it up, Thompson doesn't have the best form entering the fourth major of the year, either. That leaves world No. 1 Stacy Lewis to challenge Park and a slew of other impressive, accomplished golfers.

Here is a look at some of the vital information on where to catch the action in this major showcase along with an extended preview of the 2014 LPGA Championship.

 

When: Thursday, August 14, through Sunday, August 17

Where: Monroe Golf Club in Pittsford, New York

Tee Times: For a complete list of tee times for the first two rounds, visit LPGA.com.

Purse: $2,250,000; Winner's Share: $337,500
