Lydia Ko has an uphill battle to make the cut after a difficult opening round at the latest women's golf major in, Frisco, Texas.
The world number three has carded a three over par 75 at the PGA Championship to sit well down the leaderboard in a tie for 58th.

Ko started her round well with a birdie on the first hole, but then bogeyed the third and then the sixth and seventh holes.
The back nine was clear until a bogey on the 17th.
Thailand's Jeeno Thitikul holds the clubhouse lead at four under.
Meanwhile Ryan Fox has made a better start at the latest stop on the PGA Tour in Connecticut.
He's carded a one-under par 69 at the Travelers Championship which could have been better except for a double bogey on the par three 16th hole after finding the water hazard off the tee.
