LPGA Singapore tournament
Top-ranked Jeeno Thitikul struggles in the first round of the LPGA Singapore
tournament
SINGAPORE (AP) --- Top-ranked Jeeno Thitikul struggled during the first round
of the HSBC Women's World Championship on Thursday, shooting a 1-over 73 to
trail the leader by seven strokes.
Thitikul won last week's tournament in her native Thailand and is among nine
out of the top 10 players entered in the Singapore LPGA stop on the Sentosa
Golf Club's Tanjong course.
American Auston Kim birdied two of her final three holes for a 66 and a
one-stroke lead over China's Yan Liu. Five players were tied for third with
68s, including No. 12-ranked Haeran Ryu.
Defending champion Lydia Ko had a 70, as did Brooke Henderson.
Joining Thitikul among the top-ranked players well out of the lead were No. 3
Charley Hull and fourth-ranked Minjee Lee, who each shot 72.
No. 2-ranked Nelly Korda is the only player from the top 10 who is not in
Singapore. The tournament is the second of three stops on the LPGA's early-year
Asian swing, with the final one next week at Hainan Island, China.
