Great Britain’s struggles continued in the women’s Olympic golf as Morgane Metraux took a one-shot lead after the second round at Le Golf National.

Georgia Hall is highest placed in a tie for 36th, but sits on four-over par after shooting a two-over 74 in the second round on Thursday.

Charley Hull is tied in 52nd spot after an improved performance on the second day, shooting a round of one under.

However, the damage of the opening day means the 28-year-old is eight over and well out of medal contention.

There is no cut in the event so both will continue into the weekend, when Switzerland’s Metraux will look to remain in command.
