Golf: favourites and home hopes

Thailand’s Jeeno Thitikul and South Korea’s Ryu Hae-ran are among those expected to be in the mix, with Ryu chasing a third successive major. England’s challenge rests heavily on Charley Hull and Lottie Woad, who will carry home hopes as the championship moves to its decisive day.
