LPGA star Charley Hull recently made headlines with her smoking habit, which has turned her into a cult hero among fans. Last year, during the U.S. Women’s Open, Hull was caught smoking a cigarette on the range before a round, which quickly went viral. Despite the attention, Hull has remained unapologetic about her habit, citing stress as the reason for starting. However, she recently announced her decision to quit smoking, placing a $10,000 bet with fellow pro Ryan Evans to help her stay accountable. If she smokes a cigarette in the next two years, she’ll owe Evans the money, but if she succeeds, she’ll gain better health but no financial reward.

Hull’s rise in the Rolex Women’s World Golf Rankings to No. 10 has been attributed not only to her on-course performance but also to her unique personality and habits. Despite the controversy surrounding her smoking, Hull has continued to perform well on the LPGA tour, with recent finishes of T19 and T4. Fans have been intrigued by Hull’s bold decision to quit smoking and are eager to see how it will impact her game in the future. While some may question her decision to make such a public bet, Hull’s determination to improve her health and break her habit is admirable and shows her commitment to personal growth and self-improvement.

Hull’s decision to quit smoking comes at a critical point in her career, as she looks to build on her success and solidify her position in the world of professional golf. By making a public commitment to quitting, Hull is demonstrating her resolve and dedication to improving herself both on and off the course. The $10,000 bet with Evans adds an element of accountability and motivation to Hull’s journey to quit smoking, providing her with a tangible goal to work towards. Fans and fellow golfers alike will be rooting for Hull to succeed in overcoming her habit and achieving her health goals, showing that even the most unconventional players can make positive changes in their lives.

Hull’s smoking habit has been a topic of discussion in the golf world for some time, with fans and commentators speculating on its impact on her game and public image. Despite the criticism, Hull has remained true to herself and unapologetic about her habit, citing stress as the primary reason for starting. However, with her recent decision to quit smoking and the $10,000 bet on the line, Hull is taking proactive steps towards improving her health and setting a positive example for her fans and fellow players. As she continues to compete on the LPGA tour and make waves in the golfing world, Hull’s journey to quit smoking will be closely followed and celebrated by those who admire her talent and resilience.
