The last time Charley Hull clinched the trophy was back in 2022 at the Ascendant LPGA benefiting Volunteers of America. But since then, there has been a dry spell on her victories. The season is close to its end, and she hasn’t snagged a win this year. Don’t let this fool you, though. She may have not won, but her overall performance has been impressive: Four top-25 finishes in the five majors. Then, with three other top-10 finishes, and also a Europe-best three-win week at the Solheim Cup that included a 6-and-4 destruction of world No. 1 Nelly Korda, Hull has delivered a strong year professionally,
But there’s no denying the toll this winless streak has taken on her. If you have noticed, she hasn’t played as much this season, even taking some time off before her recent return at the Maybank Championship. So, where has she been?
While discussing her performance post-event, Hull said, “I played pretty well from the getgo to be fair. I know I shot 65, but I left a lot of shots out there, especially on my back nine; missed few putts. But I had a good up and down on the last to make par, and shot 7-under. I felt like I had four weeks off so kind of first few rounds was getting back into playing and now I feel pretty good.”

Further, when the interviewer asked her to reflect on those four weeks, Hull revealed a glimpse into what she values most. “I just love being at home. I love being with my boyfriend. I just love England… When I come away I get really homesick, so I’m so excited to go home. I’m in Saudi next week and then I’m home for a week.”
Wait! Did she just mention her boyfriend? Yes, you read that right! Over the past four weeks, Hull has been home, enjoying her time with her new partner. For the unversed, Hull was married to English MMA fighter Ozzie Smith, but the couple split in 2021 after two years of marriage.
Since then, the golfer has kept her relationship status under wraps. But now, with this rare admission from the 28-year-old, one big question remains: Who’s the lucky one?

What’s your perspective on:
Is Charley Hull's love life affecting her ability to clinch victories on the golf course?
Have an interesting take?
So far, Hull has not confirmed who she is dating. But if rumors are to be believed, she is dating Gaz Beadle, the television star from Geordie Shore. Earlier this year, news came swirling that Hull was spotted playing golf with her new beau at the Dunstanburgh Castle Golf Club in Alnwick.
According to a source, as per The Sun, “Gaz has made no secret of his love of golf and seems to have found his perfect match in Charley. She is at the top of her game, and Gaz is enjoying getting on the course with her to pick up new skills.”
If that’s not enough, the alleged couple even had an itsy-bitsy conversation through emoticons on the English pro’s Instagram post. Given that Hull is an extremely private person, she certainly does prefer to remain tight-lipped about this part of her life. However, in June 2024, there were reports that suggested they had split.

“It’s a real shame but having a full-on relationship was just too hard. He’s trying to juggle seeing his kids with working – and it all got a bit much,” a source shared back then.
Now, we do not know if Hull was referring to Beadle in her Maybank Championship interview or a different person, but one thing is for sure: The golfer does have a special someone in her life. We will have to wait for her to reveal more details about her boyfriend. What do you think?
