English golfer Charley Hull has played down the notion of a rivalry with world number one Nelly Korda, stating that she needs to secure her first major title before considering a rivalry. Hull, currently ranked seventh in the world, has had several near-misses in majors, including two runner-up finishes at the AIG Women's Open. She expressed admiration for Korda's achievements, describing them as 'unbelievable' and praising her as a 'nice girl.' Hull's focus remains on winning her first major, having come close on multiple occasions, including a second-place finish at the US Women's Open in June.
Meanwhile, fellow English golfer Lottie Woad, ranked fifth in the world, has set her sights on claiming a 'dream' major title at the AIG Women's Open, citing her fondness for links golf and the challenge posed by the Royal Lytham & St Annes course.
