The 1993 LPGA Championship was the 39th LPGA Championship, played June 10–13 at Bethesda Country Club in Bethesda, Maryland, a suburb northwest of Washington, D.C.

Patty Sheehan won the fourth of her six major titles, one stroke ahead of runner-up Lauri Merten.[2] She trailed by two strokes after entering the final round,[3] and it was her third and final win at the LPGA Championship, with previous victories in 1983 and 1984.[2]

This was the last of four consecutive LPGA Championships at Bethesda Country Club.
