Jeeno Thitikul, the world number two, leads the first round of the AIG Women’s Open at Royal Lytham & St Anne’s. Multiple outlets report that Thitikul carded a seven-under-par 64, described as a strong and impressive start, to move to the top of the leaderboard. Her score puts her two shots ahead of the chasing pack going into the next rounds. The reports also highlight that competitors including Ryu and Kuwaki are among those pursuing Thitikul’s lead. While the articles focus on Thitikul’s performance and her two-shot advantage, they agree on the key early outcome: she sets the pace after an opening round marked by a low score and significant momentum for the tournament’s early stage.
