Olympics Women's Tee Times - Round Two
France's Celine Boutier took a three-shot lead in the opening round - here are the details of her and the rest of the field's tee times for day two
Following on from a hugely successful men's Olympics tournament at Le Golf National, the women's event got off to an equally enthralling start as 60 players took to the course for the first of four days of strokeplay.
The same 20 groups of three that took part on Wednesday will be in action again in the second round, after French player Celine Boutier opened up a three-shot overnight lead.
The action begins at 3.00am EDT (8.00am BST) with Chinese Taipei's Wei-Ling Hsu, Austria's Emma Spitz and India's Diksha Dagar, who is one-under on the first tee.
Boutier begins her second round 55 minutes later in a group with the US's Lilia Vu, who is T3, and South Korean Amy Yang.
Right behind Boutier on the leaderboard is South African Ashleigh Buhai. She's grouped with Ireland's Leona Maguire and Team GB's Georgia Hall. The trio get their second round started at 4.22am EDT (9.22am BST).
World No.1 Nelly Korda sits seven off the pace with three rounds to play. However, the American was impressed with the Le Golf National atmosphere in the first round, and thinks it would make a good Solheim Cup venue.
She'll be hoping to draw from the energy of the crowd in her second round, where she is grouped with South Korean Jin Young Ko and China's Ruoning Yin. They have a tee time of 5.55am EDT (10.55am BST) in the second round.
