Pat Bradley holds the record for the most victories when the tournament was a major, with three, and Bradley had the most consecutive wins with two.[1] The lowest under-par and aggregate score achieved while a major was Brandie Burton's 270 (–18) in 1998, which just happened to be her second duMaurier Classic win and only the second along with Bradley to ever accomplish the feat.[1]
