Women's Open: Round one and two tee times

The 50th Women's Open Championship begins this Thursday at Royal Lytham and St Anne's. Golf fans are looking toward a field that includes world number one Nelly Korda and English favorite Charley Hull. This event marks a return to a venue with deep history for local players, as Georgia Hall looks to recreate her success from 2018.

Charley Hull faces a test early in the tournament. She plays her first two rounds alongside Brooke Henderson and Hannah Green starting at 13:26 BST on Thursday. Hull seeks her first major title after finishing as the runner-up five times in her career. The grouping represents one of the most watched pairings in the opening rounds.

Nelly Korda enters the tournament with significant momentum after winning two majors already this year. She plays with Ryu Haeran and Lydia Ko starting at 08:42 BST. A victory for Korda at Royal Lytham would secure a career Grand Slam, as she holds three of the four required major titles. The tournament concludes on Sunday, with full coverage available for the final round.
