Jodi Ewart Shadoff and Holly Clyburn routed Pornanong Phatlum and Pornani Chutichai of Thailand 7 and 5.

Hull, sidelined by illness on Friday, returned and teamed with Melissa Reid to beat sisters Ariya and Moriya Jutanugarn 3 and 1, as England won Pool B with nine points.

Thailand had taken the lead with birdies at the second and fourth by Moriya, but Hull reeled off four straight birdies at the fifth through eighth to put England two up.

Reid birdied the ninth to stretch the lead before Ariya stepped up with two birdies and a chip-in eagle on the 16th hole to keep within striking distance.     [FULL  STORY]
