Sometimes despite all our efforts, things don’t go our way. Something similar is happening with Charley Hull at the Solheim Cup. The English sweetheart is a Solheim Cup veteran and is playing in her sixth edition this year. She has won the event three times as part of Team Europe. But this year luck seems to have abandoned her on the Finca Cortesin course.
In the last few days, Hull gave her fans a preview of all her preparations on social media but her sitting out the match-up on the second day now has left them disappointed. Twitter is filled with fans expressing their dismay upon not seeing their favorite player play.
What’s wrong with Charley Hull? Why isn’t she in action?

After a bad first-round performance, Hull is sitting out the second round of foursomes owing to her injuries. And fans are full of concern for the player. Before the Solheim Cup began, Charley Hull was super ready for the tournament. Her social media posts gave her fans a preview of all the preparations she had been making. And she stepped onto the course yesterday with confidence.
But she failed to deliver what was expected of her. Yesterday she was paired with Emily Pedersen and they were put against American opponents Cheyenne Knight and Ally Ewing. But her years of experience of the Cup failed her and her opponents took the contest.
Hull was visibly struggling throughout the day and the reason for it was her neck injury. Her sprained neck seems to be impacting her performance. Hull was the youngest person ever to play in the tournament in 2013 after she was selected by captain Liselotte Neumann. Fans who wish to see more of Hull playing are very disappointed.
Charley Hull appears done for the day!
Fans who were hoping to see some fierce golf by the English player are sad by her absence and are wishing her a speedy recovery. One user showed their discontent with a thumbs-down emoji.

And this fan was very angry with her absence. They were not happy with the team think-tank led by Suzann Pettersen.
@joshuaperry22 WTF did Charlie Hull say after her 1st match, egregious to sit her back to back sessions.

Nice bounce back from the euros after getting shutout in the opening stage.
Was not overly concerned about more of a issue with missed putts than anything else.
Only true point of concern is Charley hull I am pretty certain she re- aggravated whatever was— BetMystic (@betmystic) September 22, 2023
