LPGA Tour sensation Charley Hull has admitted that she's relishing the opportunity to play for the first time in Ireland as a professional.
The hugely popular English golf was confirmed in the field last month for this year's event at Carton House.
The seven-time Solheim Cup star turned professional in 2013 at just 17 years old but has yet to play on the Emerald Isle since then.
Hull won the LET Rookie of the Year award in her debut season and later captured her first professional victory at the 2014 Lalla Meryem Cup.
She became the youngest ever competitor in the Solheim Cup when she played for Europe in 2013 at the age of 17.
In 2016, Hull claimed her maiden title on the LPGA Tour, winning the CME Group Tour Championship.
She’s also a regular on the LPGA and LET circuits and has become a massive fan favourite with her no nonsense attitude - the English native is currently in action at the US Open.
Hull has amassed a significant following on Instagram, with 754,000 followers.
Hull’s engaging presence on social media has contributed to her popularity, making her one of the most followed female golfers globally.
And 29-year-old Hull is relishing the opportunity of playing in front of Irish fans next month.
Hull said: “I’ve heard so many good things about the KPMG Women’s Irish Open and I can’t wait to play.
"This will be my first professional event in Ireland since I turned Pro in 2013, and it seems like the perfect event to mark this occasion.
“I look forward to experiencing Carton House and to meeting the huge number of Irish fans that I have heard support this event so well – I am very excited to see you all soon.”
The KPMG Irish Open takes place from 3 - 6 July 2025 at the Kildare venue.
