Much was expected of Charley Hull when she got through LPGA Q School as an 18-year-old in 2014. More at least than just one victory in her first seven-plus years on tour. At the time, the Englishwoman was coming off winning the Ladies European Tour Order of Merit and had become the youngest golfer to ever compete in the Solheim Cup a year earlier.
On Sunday, however, Hull was able to (finally) claim win No. 2, beating China’s Xiyu Lin by at The Ascendant LPGA. A final-round 64—with eight birdies to bring her week-long total to 23—gave Hull an 18-under 266 total at Old American Golf Club in The Colony, Texas.
If the victory was a long time coming, it was something Hull had perhaps foreshadowed in the 2022 season, having finished in the top-10 four times and the top 20 in seven of her previous 16 starts.
With the victory, Hull earned a prize money payout of $255,000 from an overall purse of $1.7 million. The first-place payday put Hull past the $1 million in earnings in 2022 and made her the sixth English golfer to win multiple times on the LPGA Tour.
