@Source: newsweek.com
Charley Hull is a familiar name in golf headlines, but it's never pleasant to see her in the condition she was in at Évian-Les-Bains. The Englishwoman was unable to finish the first round of the Amundi Evian Championship due to the effects of a virus that was affecting her.A day after this unfortunate situation, the LPGA Tour star addressed her fans through her Instagram account to give them an update on her health. Fortunately, it was good news:"Been struggling with a virus all week but it got the better of me yesterday... thanks to the medics who took care of me and to all those who have reached out with messages of support, it's really appreciated.""Happy to say I'm feeling a lot better today, just gutted I can't play the weekend at such a fantastic tournament."On Thursday, Charlie Hull was forced to sit on the ground while playing the 3rd hole (12th of the day), feeling seriously unwell. Shortly after, she collapsed on the 4th tee and had to be carried off the course by medical staff.She was later airlifted to a nearby hospital.Hull had carded three birdies and two bogeys before being forced to withdraw from the Evian Championship.A week earlier, she had played in the KPMG Women's Irish Open on the Ladies European Tour, where she finished fourth with a score of 12-under.This was Hull's 13th appearance at the Evian Championship. She had made eight cuts so far at Évian-Les-Bains, but had only managed one top-10 finish, tying for third in 2022.Hull has been falling short of expectations during the 2025 season. In nine LPGA Tour events before the Evian Championship, she had finished in the top 10 only once, fourth place at the HSBC Women's World Championship.On the Ladies' European Tour, she has played in only two events and finished in the top 10 in both.These results have caused her to drop significantly in the world rankings, where she currently sits at 19th. She started the year as World No. 8.More Golf: Rory McIlroy Grinds Through "Scrappy Start" to Stay in Contention
