Mandatory Credit: Marc DesRosiers-USA TODAY Sports/File photoAug 10 (Reuters) - American Ally Ewing carded a 68 in the first round of the Women's British Open to finish at four-under for a one-shot lead at the Walton Heath Golf Club on Thursday.
"Obviously it was exciting to get in with a good first round, but a long way to go from Sunday," Ewing said.
"It's great to put a good first round together, but in major championship golf you can never really lose focus."
England's Charley Hull is three shots off the lead after the opening round, having carded 71.
