The third women's Major of the year, the KPMG Women's PGA Championship is taking place at the stunning Sahalee Golf Club in Washington, and there has been some stellar golf played in the opening round already.
Having recently announced she is to retire from full-time pro golf at the close of this season, Lexi Thompson posted a four-under round of 68 on Thursday to lead by one from World No.1 Nelly Korda and Thai superstar, Patty Tavatanakit.
Thompson, who is grouped with Jin Young Ko and Yuka Saso - the reigning US Women's Open champion, starts at 11:11am EST (4:11pm BST) on Friday.
Meanwhile, Korda won the tournament in 2021 and is looking to bounce back from two missed cuts in recent weeks to claim her seventh win of the season. She's grouped with reigning champion Ruoning Yin and Hannah Green in the first two rounds, with the three getting underway at 4:28pm ET (9:28pm BST) on Friday.
Another high-profile group sees former World No.1 Lilia Vu tee it up with Minjee Lee and Linn Grant. The trio begin at 11:00am EST (4:00pm BST) in the second round.
Could this be Lexi Thompson's last KPMG Women's PGA Championship appearance?
Brooke Henderson became the youngest winner of the tournament when, at the age of 18, she took the honors against Lydia Ko in 2016. The pair have been grouped together over the first two rounds, along with Ariya Jutanugarn, and they went off at 11:22am ET (4:22pm BST) in the second round.
Below are all tee times for the second round of the KPMG Women's PGA Championship.
