Jeeno Thitikul edges clear as heat takes toll at Women's PGA
Jeeno Thitikul of Thailand shot a four-under-par 68 to take an early one-shot lead at the KPMG Women's PGA Championship in Frisco, Texas (Stacy Revere) Thailand's Jeeno Thitikul fired a four-under-par 68 to edge into a slender lead as searing heat and humidity tested players in the opening round of the KPMG US Women's PGA Championship in Texas on Thursday. The 22-year-old, who is chasing her first major victory after seven top-10 finishes, reeled off six birdies to move into a one-shot lead. Advertisement Jeeno's only blemish on an otherwise flawless opening round was a double-bogey six at the par-four fourth hole of PGA Frisco's 6,404-yard Fields Ranch East layout. The rising Thai star, who has already amassed 18 wins as a professional including five on the LPGA Tour, said she had taken a patient approach after shrugging off her early double-bogey disappointment. "I think like all the majors, I have told myself just to be really patient," Jeeno said after her round. "I definitely know that I'm going to miss a shot or make a bogey during the day. "Don't be like, moody ... I told myself be patient and focused on the next shot." Advertisement Jeeno was one shot clear of Australia's Minjee Lee, who had a roller coaster round that included seven birdies and four bogeys en route to a three-under-par 69. Lee was satisfied with her round but admitted the searing temperatures in the high 90s (Fahrenheit) were challenging. "I just kept telling my caddie, can you give me another water, can you give me another water," Lee said. "I don't think we could have enough (water) out there. It's really hot." Japan's Rio Takeda, South Korea's Lee So-mi and American Yealimi Noh were a further shot back after carding two-under-par 70s. Advertisement World number one Nelly Korda, meanwhile, is four off the pace after an opening level-par 72. Korda also admitted she had found the heat a struggle. "It's hot; I'm still cooling down right now," Korda said. "I'm pretty happy with my first round in the conditions. "It definitely takes a toll on you, the Texas heat." Auston Kim, who posted a one-under-par 71, said the heat had been more of a challenge than anything the twists and turns of the PGA Frisco layout had offered. "I think the most difficult thing is dealing with the heat," Kim said. "There were times I had to lock in really hard just because the heat is taking a toll on you. You kind of want to just get into a daze and it's hard to focus. Advertisement "The heat was probably the hardest part, and then hitting the fairways. I had to chop it out of the rough twice today, including on the last hole. "I thought I was going to make double for sure, but I managed to make a really good bogey." rcw/bb

Some like it hot: Minjee Lee sizzles at LPGA golf major
Minjee Lee has matched the searing heat with a sizzling start to the PGA Championship, women's golf's third major of the year in Texas. Drinking litres and litres of water and taking refuge under an umbrella, Lee collected seven birdies in a first-round three-under-par 69 at PGA Frisco. Minjee Lee started strong in search of major title #3 👀🇦🇺 — LPGA (@LPGA) June 19, 2025 As the afternoon starters battled extreme winds as well as the soaring temperatures, Australia's dual major winner was safely in the clubhouse in second spot, just one shot behind Thai superstar Jeeno Thitikul. "I putted really great today. I made a lot of birdie putts and a whole bunch of up-and-down par putts as well," Lee said. "My iron game was pretty solid as well, but I think I need to sharpen up my drives a little bit. But I felt quite good today. "I was clutch under like 14 feet." Lee at one point reached five under for a two-stroke buffer following back-to-back birdies on the 14th and 15th holes, but dropped shots on 16 and 18 to open the door for Thitikul to snare the lead. The Perth ace was nevertheless happy to just be back in the clubhouse after a gruelling morning battling the conditions. "I just kept telling my caddie, 'Can you give me another water, can you give me another water?' So, I don't know. I don't think we could have enough out there. It's really hot," Lee said. "It's the same for everyone. I mean, if it's tough for me it's going be tough for pretty much the whole field. "Just try and use my umbrella to shade the sun and the more wind we have it's a little bit cooler so just try and hydrate and eat well on the course." Thitikul started slowly, slipping to two over with a double-bogey six on the fifth hole. A strong start to the week for @Jeeno_atthaya 💪 — LPGA (@LPGA) June 19, 2025 But that was her lone blemish before reeling off six birdies in her last 13 holes to sit pretty atop the leaderboard. World No.1 Nelly Korda shot an even-par 72, three days after aggravating a neck injury during a practice round. While Korda said she doesn't feel pain hitting shots, the two-time major champion said she has pain "just with rotation" of her neck and that it is hard to get comfortable sleeping at night. "It's better, yeah. Getting better every day, which is nice," she said. "Just because I injured it last year, whenever I do injure my neck it takes a little bit longer than normal. "I kind of tweaked it before my round with Ariya (Jutanugarn) in Vegas this year, during the night I couldn't move then, so thankfully it wasn't as bad as that day. ... Just takes me like a week to kind of recover when I tweak my neck now."
