Woad off the pace with second round too early for television

It might even have been a relief to the organisers of this Women's Open that, as shadows lengthened, Lottie Woad did not blast her way towards the front of the queue.

Woad may well be the name on everyone's lips but, on day two, she will barely feature on anybody's screens.

Perhaps it is a sign of this major's rapid growth that everyone wants more. Nonetheless, fans will find it unsatisfactory that, with daily television coverage beginning at noon, Woad - plus Nelly Korda and Lydia Ko - will play the majority of her second round minus the eyeballs of anyone not in attendance at Royal Porthcawl. This is now a recurring theme after Leona Maguire took to social media to point out her hole in one at the recent Evian Championship was not caught on camera. Woad begins day two at 8.09am, with Ko for company.
