Charley Hull What's In The Bag & Player Profile

England's Charley Hull ended a two-year title drought in style, shooting a final round of 66 to win the Aramco Team Series event in Riyadh.

Hull, 28, started the third and final round two strokes behind Pia Babnik of Slovenia, but five birdies in her first seven holes pushed her into a lead she never lost. She eventually claimed the title by three shots, and was absolutely delighted.

She said: "I felt really sharp, I played very solidly," said Hull after claiming a fourth Ladies' European Tour victory, to add to two LPGA titles. 

"I made a bogey on the par-five 17th and the par three, but that was just two three putts. [They were] quite long putts and they got away from me a little bit, but I felt like I held my game together pretty well. And 18 under for three days is a pretty good score."

Charley Hull was born in Kettering in March 1996. She was first introduced to golf aged two, and began playing with her father at Kettering Golf Club. 

She left school aged 13 to be home schooled, and started playing in amateur tournaments. She enjoyed a successful amateur career. Aged 10 she played alongside Moran Presel in the British Open Pro-Am. Hull then won several amateur events in the United States and Great Britain.

Hull played on the Great Britain and Ireland Curtis Cup team in 2012. She had initially been removed from the team in a dispute with the LGU over a mandatory training session that conflicted with the Kraft Nabisco Championship, a major on the LPGA Tour to which Hull had been invited. The LGU re-instated Hull to the team and Hull finished tied for 38th at the Kraft Nabisco Championship.

Hull also competed in the 2012 Women’s Open, where she was tied for third after the first round.

She turned professional in 2013 and joined the Ladies European Tour, where she enjoyed five successive runner-up finishes in her rookie season.  

Her first victory came in 2014 at the Lalla Meryem Cup in Morocco when she was still only 17. She finished the season at the top of the order of merit, the youngest player ever to achieve the feat. 

In 2015 she started to split her time between the LPGA Tour and the LET. Her first victory on the LPGA came in 2016 at CME Group Tour Championship. She has won twice on the LPGA Tour and four times on the LET.

Prior to her victory in the Aramaco, her last win came at The Ascendant on the LPGA Tour in October 2022 but she had had 10 runner-up finishes, including the 2023 US Open and Women’s Open. 

She has played 91 tournaments on the LET, with four victories and an astonishing 43 top 10s. On the LPGA Tour she has earnings of almost $9m.

She has represented Europe in the Solheim Cup on seven occasions.
