Charley Hull issues injury update after parking | Golf News

English golf star Charley Hull has supplied followers with a candid update on her recovery following a freak parking-lot injury that pressured her withdrawal from the PIF London Championship.

The 29-year-old, who said Rory McIlroy’s marriage and cut up influenced her own selections, revealed that what regarded like a devastating twist turned out to be less extreme, but still critical enough to sideline her from competitors.

Hull, world No. 10, suffered the injury while strolling to observe at Centurion Club. “I was buzzing yesterday coming out of physio… I booked a four or five‑hour practice session… I was really excited all week,” she recalled.

“Coming out of the locker room, I had a skip in my step because I love practicing. But then I fell over a curb in the car park and was lying on the floor shouting for my boyfriend to come get me. The security guard was watching me, and I heard my ankle pop. I thought I broke it. Someone picked me up and put me in the car. I went down so quickly, I nearly fainted.”

Despite the severity of the second, medical analysis eased some fears.

“I started moving my ankle and it’s nowhere near as bad as I thought,” she said.

Hull later provided a glimpse at her rehabilitation efforts on social media, sharing a picture of herself training in a “moon boot” and captioning it: “Training in a moon boot.”

Another post featured her holding a child with the caption, “Life lately = family, friends, puppy cuddles and a moon boot.”

Her withdrawal from the PIF London Championship got here as a blow. Hull explained: “I’m devastated not to be competing in front of a home crowd,” including that she remained onsite to help the event and join with followers even while sidelined.

She was stretchered off the course, marking another irritating chapter in her season.
