Charley Hull withdrew from the Evian Championship in France on Thursday after collapsing at the No. 4 tee due to illness.

Hull, ranked No. 19 in the world, was playing with partners world No. 4 Ruoning Yin and Haeran Ryu. She received medical attention after going down to the grass before her tee shot and officials permitted the trailing group to play through while tending to the Englishwoman.

Following a delay of about 15 minutes for treatment, the two-time LPGA Tour winner recovered to hit the tee shot but again went to the ground after completing her swing.

She was helped onto a motorized cart fitted with a flatbed stretcher. Hull reportedly has been battling a virus.

A few hours later, Golf Channel reported Hull was feeling better and sitting upright in the player’s dining area at Evian Resort Golf Club.

Hull, 29, was at even par. She has not yet won a major and finished T12 in both the Women’s PGA Championship and U.S. Women’s Open in 2025.
