England's Charley Hull will begin her latest attempt to win her first major title when she tees off in a prestigous grouping in the 50th Women's Open Championship on Thursday morning.
The 30-year-old has five runners-up finishes in golf's biggest events, including in June at the US Open, and will play her opening two rounds alongside Brooke Henderson of Canada and Australian Hannah Green (13:26 BST).
Hull's compatriot Lottie Woad will play with Andrea Lee from America and Japan's Akie Iwai in the opening two rounds at at Royal Lytham & St Anne's, with the group starting at 08:31 on Thursday.
World number one Nelly Korda of the United States and Korea's Ryu Haeran play alongside New Zealand's Lydia Ko - who pipped Korda to the Women's Open title in 2024 - in the following group (08:42).
Korda and Ryu have both won two majors in 2026 and have the chance to become only the fifth woman in history to claim three in a calendar year.
Korda can also claim the career Grand Slam with victory at Lytham because the LPGA recognises a player as having achieved the feat by winning four of the five major titles.
She has won three - the Women's PGA, the Chevron Championship and the US Open - and needs either the Evian Championship or the Women's Open for the slam.
England's Georgia Hall won her sole major title the last time the Women's Open was held at Royal Lytham in 2018.
The Bournemouth golfer, who has only just returned to tour life after the birth of her first child earlier this year, will tee off at 12:42 in the same group as 2019 Women's Open champion Hinako Shibuno.
