It was one of a small number of limited field events on the LPGA Tour. Only winners of an LPGA event from the previous four years, as well as active Hall of Fame members, were eligible for the tournament.

In 2004, the title sponsor became the Mitchell Company, a real estate development and management firm headquartered in Mobile, Alabama.
