Charley Hull arrived late at The Annika but still managed to have a fabulous round. She is playing this week on the LPGA Tour. The tournament started with its first round on Thursday, and Hull played a solid round of 67 and settled in a tie for fourth place.
Following her game, the English golfer shared a video on her Instagram story in which she opened up about her performance and reflected on having a good round despite arriving late for the event. She couldn't play the practice round at the venue.
However, while sharing the video, she mistakenly typed her score for the round. She shot 3-under 67, but in the caption of the story, she wrote 3-under 69.
"Not bad and still got a cheeky little 69 (-3)," she wrote.

Charley Hull reflects on her performance at The Annika
In the post-round press conference of The Annika on Thursday, Charley Hull opened up about her performance and also how she managed to play in the tournament despite skipping the practice round.
She withdrew from the pro-am tournament on Wednesday because she was sick, but on Thursday had a good outing. Speaking of her performance, she said (via ASAP Sports):
"I played pretty sold considering I didn't get here until Tuesday night and had to pull out of the pro-am yesterday because I felt sick. So I didn't play the golf course. I had an early practice and managed to wing it round today. Yeah, I felt confident in my game and played pretty well."
Earlier this season on the LPGA Tour, Charley Hull won the Kroger Queen City Championship and is looking forward to her second win of the year on the circuit. She had last played at the Lotte Championship on the LPGA Tour and carded the four rounds of 69, 68, 72, and 69 to settle in a tie for 14th place. She was the runner-up at the AIG Women’s Open and tied for fourth at the HSBC Women’s World Championship.
