English player suffering from virus at French major
29-year-old unable to continue after tee shot at 4th
Charley Hull has withdrawn from the Evian Championship after collapsing after a tee shot during her first round. The Englishwoman was taken from the course at the French major on a medical cart on Thursday morning.
Reports from the event said Hull sat by the side of a bunker on the 3rd hole, clearly looking unwell. Having taken a 15-minute medical break, Hull hit her tee shot on the 4th and slumped to the ground.
She duly withdrew from the tournament, with broadcasters reporting the world No 19 had been suffering from an unspecified virus. Hull’s management has been contacted for an update on her situation.
