Pacific Coast Championships, California, USA
A detailed introduction to and results from women's singles event at the Pacific Coast Championships in the years 1890-1914 can be found here:
http://www.tennisforum.com/showthrea...+championships
An asterisk (*) after a result indicates that the holder did not defend her title in the year in question; the last singles match would then have been an All-Comers' Final.
As with so many other tournaments, the advent of open tennis in 1968 sounded the death knell for the Pacific Coast Championships, which was discontinued in 1972.

A contribution by Newmark401
*Newmark has uncovered important (but contradictory) information about the Pacific Coast event from 1894 to 1897. That information may be found in this post:
http://www.tennisforum.com/showthrea...4#post18641664
In addition the New York Times, in an article from 1915, states that Mrs Blanchard (nee Hooper) won the Coast event for four consecutive years.

Pacific Southwest Championships, Los Angeles, California, USA
Inaugurated in 1927, and held on hard courts in Los Angeles, usually in late September, the Pacific Southwest Championships was one of the main tournaments in the tennis calendar from its inception until 1971 and the creation of the Virginia Slims tour in the same year. The Pacific Southwest Championships quickly became California's leading tournament, attracting both Hollywood movie stars and, frequently, the top American players in particular.
The tournament continued during World War Two, although the 1943 edition of the Pacific Southwest Championships was an invitational tournament held over three weekends so players would not miss out on war work.
In 1971, both Billie Jean King and Rosie Casals defaulted the final at 6-6 in the first set after a refusal to remove a lineswoman with whom King in particular was displeased. The tournament was doomed after this occurrence and eventually discontinued in 1974.

Palm Springs Invitational, California, US (Hard)
For the past is difficult tell if a tournament was held in Palm Springs (probably at Palm Springs TC Resort) or in the near (22 km.) Palm Desert (probably at Shadow Mountain Resort & Club).
Therefore I collect here both the venues.
At least from 1955 it was Shadow Mountain Invitational (or Desert Invitational), but the Shadow Mountain Resort & Club opened in 1946 only, and the Palm Desert’s first tennis courts opened at Shadow Mountain in 1961 only.
http://www.shadowmountainresort.com/...esort-history/
So, even if in our yearly threads we have Palm Desert as venue also in 1955 and '57 , is possible that Palm Springs was the venue.
