    Lydia Ko is turning her attention to a third Olympics ahead of the year's third golf major this morning


    She tees up at the PGA Championship hosted by the Sahalee Club in Washington, chasing a first grand slam victory in eight years.

    World number one Nelly Korda has the early clubhouse lead after carding a three-under par 69.

    Ko's told the Golf Channel she always plays for her country but the Games are different, having secured a silver and bronze in the past.



    Ko has suggested this year's Games will be her last.
