(Reuters) - Kim Sei-young hopes to become the world No. 1 with a win at the U.S. Women's Open, which begins on Thursday, but with nine of the top 10 golfers playing in Houston, Texas, she faces a tough fight in the final major of 2020.

After picking up her maiden major title at the Women's PGA Championship in October, second-ranked Kim is among the favourites in the tightly packed field at Champions Golf Club, where competitors will play on two courses: Cypress Creek and Jackrabbit.
