Watch LPGA star Charley Hull’s viral, legendary club twirl

Watch LPGA star Charley Hull’s viral, legendary club twirl

Charley Hull and Georgia Hall competed in the Dow Championship, a team stroke play event on the LGPA Tour, last weekend.

The best friend duo finished fifth in the tournament, behind winners Ruoning Yin and Atthaya Thitikul. However, Hull gave golf fans another viral moment over the weekend that made her a winner in her own book. Her cigarette smoking took the world by storm earlier this year, but this time it was her club swing.

As X-user Flushing It explains, her movement almost defies gravity. Fans will want to watch this horizontal movement multiple times to fully appreciate it.

As spectacular as this movement is, one has to wonder how she came up with it, because it is incomparable to any other rotation.

The shot she hit was just as impressive as the sidewinder. Hull exudes confidence and the swing of the club matches her charisma. Hopefully it will become a new trademark for her because it is iconic.

Let’s look at some of the legendary club spins of Tiger Woods and other PGA Tour players.

Tiger is the king of the club spin, having popularized and perfected this trick over the years. However, Hull has developed a trick that everyone would love to see Woods do.

No one will ever take Tiger’s crown in this regard, but Hull has at least reinvented it as her own.
