The 2023 Evian Championship is headed into the weekend, with Celine Boutier leading on home soil after 36 holes. LPGA heavyweights like Jin Young Ko, Rose Zhang, and Brooke Henderson are among the others who will be appearing in the final two rounds of the major.

But a slew of big-name players failed to impress at the Evian Resort Golf Club, and US Women’s runner-up Charley Hull was among them. On Friday, the 27-year-old took to social media to shed light on the reason behind her forgettable outing, drawing empathetic reactions from the golf world.

LPGA star Charley Hull reflects on her disappointing turn at the Evian Championship

At the recently concluded US Women’s Open, Charley Hull fired an incredible 6-under 66 in the final round that saw her ultimately tie for the 2nd position on the leaderboard. But fans of the Englishwoman will, unfortunately, not get to witness a repeat of her Pebble Beach heroics this week.

After shooting a 77 at the Evian Championship on Thursday, Hull carded a 70 in the second round to miss the cut by one shot. This is Hull’s third missed cut at four LPGA majors so far in 2023.
