Problems have already beset some at the tournament after Thompson left her passport on a truck driven by caddie Ian Wright, according to Golf Channel's Randall Mell.

He noted how Thompson retrieving the misplaced document delayed the practice plans of as many as 40 players, including Nelly Korda and Anna Nordqvist.

It's debatable how much this will impact the performances of those involved. Ko is still going to be one of the main contenders after winning the Evian Championship in France on Sunday.

Victory in France was the perfect follow up to winning the ANA Inspiration back in April. With two majors to her credit, Ko has a strong claim to collect the prestigious Rolex Annika Major Award to acknowledge the most successful LPGA player in majors in a calendar year.

Ko finished two strokes ahead of Jennifer Kupcho at the Evian Resort Golf Club after a final round that included five birdies. The 24-year-old's ability to hold her nerve and stay consistent in the decisive rounds could once again separate her from the rest of a talented field.

The challenge to win a hat-trick of majors is something the world No. 1 is relishing:

Hall will make a determined effort to retain her title, even if she is hardly entering this year's tournament in the best of form. Hall's best finish this year was ninth in the Diamond Resorts Tournament of Champions in Florida, per Kent Paisley of the LPGA official website.

However, the 23-year-old proved her ability to thrive on a links course 12 months ago. If she gets to grips with the Marquess' early, Hall will be in the final reckoning once again.

There are plenty of other notable contenders to consider, with Thompson and Kupcho among them. So are Sung Hyun Park and Kelly, but it's Ko who already looks like the player to beat.
