LPGA’s Charley Hull Went Ridiculously Low After Carding a 10 on a Hole
Charley Hull finished T2 at last week’s U.S. Women’s Open and took home almost $1 million for her performance, so it isn’t surprising to see her name at the top of the leaderboard at this week’s Aramco Team Series in London.
What is shocking, however, is that her first round score of 68 included a quintuple bogey 10. That’s right: The two-time LPGA Tour winner shot 5 under par with a double digit score on her card.
Hull’s disaster hole came on the par-5 6th at Centurion Club. Prior to the blip Hull had already made two birdies, but it’s what she did after the 10 that caused the scorecard to make waves on Friday.
Hull made eight birdies in her final 12 holes, giving her a total of 10 birdies throughout the entire round. On her front nine, Hull still managed to shoot just one over despite losing five shots on one hole. Her back-nine 30 to close out the day was even more impressive.
Ten birdies and a 10 on the scorecard is not something that you see everyday in professional golf, but Hull somehow pulled it off.
Perhaps the best part of the viral scorecard is that despite carding a 10, Hull sits tied at the top of the Aramco Team Series leaderboard with world No. 2 Nelly Korda.
