Charley Hull Sends LPGA Rival 7-Word Message After Her Shocking Miss Broke Winless Curse
Charley Hull, one of the most promising British golfers on the LPGA Tour, finally broke her long-standing winless streak in dramatic fashion. After years of close calls and near-victories, Hull captured a long-overdue LPGA title in a nerve-wracking final round, capitalizing on a shocking miss by one of her top rivals. The moment was both emotional and intense — but Hull’s post-victory message made headlines just as much as the win itself.
Her rival, who had been leading for most of the day, missed a short putt on the 18th green that would have sealed the deal. Hull seized the opportunity, sinking a birdie putt to claim the title. Moments after the win, she was caught on camera sending a pointed, seven-word message to her competitor: **“That’s golf — we’ve all been there, mate.”**
The message, while brief, struck a perfect balance between empathy and competitiveness. Hull’s words acknowledged the pressure and heartbreak that can come with elite-level golf, especially in tight finishes. Her comment also showcased the camaraderie that exists within the LPGA Tour, even among fierce competitors.
Hull’s breakthrough is significant not just for her personal career, but also for British golf. Having turned pro at just 17, Hull has always been seen as a potential star. Now, with a major win under her belt and a confident outlook, she could be poised for a strong run in the coming tournaments.
This victory might mark the start of a new chapter for Hull — one where she’s no longer the nearly-there contender, but a true threat at the top of the leaderboard. And judging by her words, she’s taking it all in stride.
