Thailand’s Atthaya Thitikul and South Korea’s Im Jin Hee hold a one-shot lead at the halfway stage of the Chevron Championship, the first women’s major of the season.

Korda had the clubhouse lead in Texas on seven under after a round of 69.

But late on, Thitikul and Im both shot 67s for eight-under totals.
