Georgia is determined to keep adding to her Major Hall

An ambitious Georgia Hall is targeting more major titles and a climb to the top of the world rankings following a superb start to the season. Hall won the Saudi Ladies International by five shots earlier this month and has finished no worse than 26th in three tournaments on the LPGA Tour in 2022.

The 25-year-old from Bournemouth is therefore in confident mood ahead of the first women's major of the year, the Chevron Championship, as she bids to add to the Women's British Open title she won in 2018.

"I feel I've done a lot in golf already but this year I just want to take it to another level," the world number 24 said.

"I'm really ready to do that and I feel eager to win a lot more events (and) get as good a world ranking as I can do - world number one, I would hope.

"I just want to take it to another level and I really want to succeed even more in my career, so hopefully I can do that.

"I was obviously very happy with the win (in Saudi Arabia) and the way I performed. Winning by five shots, leading start to finish was something I was very proud of.

"Both my previous big wins have come late, in the second half of the year, so that's why I was really glad to start off really well this year. Normally I have a fairly slow start to the year so I was very happy to get the win.

"I played well in Florida in February and confidence is growing from my win. I put a lot of work in at the start of the season, so I'm in a very steady place at the moment, very happy with my golf."

Prize money for the first women's major of the year (formerly the ANA Inspiration) increased by 60 per cent to US$5m (€3.6m) after Chevron was announced as the new sponsor.

The tournament will take place at its traditional home of Mission Hills Country Club in
