How a cigarette turned Charley Hull into a cult hero at U.S. Women’s Open
Charley Hull, the English golfer, has become a cult hero at the U.S. Women’s Open after she was filmed smoking a cigarette during her round. The footage, which was captured by a fan, quickly went viral on social media, and Hull has since been praised for her honesty and authenticity.
Hull, who finished tied for 19th at the tournament, said she was surprised by the reaction to the video. “I didn’t think anything of it at the time,” she admitted. “I just smoked a cigarette on the bench, but I guess it caught some people’s attention and they thought it was a bit different. I think it’s cool that people are embracing it and I hope it inspires them to be themselves.”
