World No 1 Nelly Korda headlines a strong field on the Scottish links and chases her second major title of the year, having won the Chevron Championship as part of a remarkable run of six LPGA Tour victories in seven starts earlier in the campaign.
Lilia Vu returns as defending champion after last year's dominant win at Walton Heath, with Yuka Saso, Amy Yang and Ayaka Furue - all major winners this season - also in action, while Charley Hull leads the British hopes after finishing runner-up in last year's contest.

The fifth and final major of the year also has added significance in the race to qualify for next month's Solheim Cup, as it's the last event to earn qualification points or world rankings to automatically earn a spot in Team Europe or Team USA.
Sky Sports will have extended live coverage from the women's major finale, with seven hours of live action for each tournament day and a special preview show looking ahead to the event.
