Despite battling severe health setbacks and minimal range time following Team Europe’s 15-13 triumph over the American squad in the Netherlands, Charley Hull established an immediate presence at the Walmart NW Arkansas Championship. The English athlete recovered from an early over-par score by registering seven birdies against a solitary bogey to record an opening 65 at Pinnacle Country Club. Her round gained momentum on the back nine, where she collected three gains across five holes starting at the 13th before adding another four birdies in a six-hole surge following the turn. Although she missed opportunities on two par-five holes, her six-under score left her just two shots behind the leader despite dealing with tonsillitis during her previous international victory.
