Charley Hull tears (!) into slow LPGA Tour players: “It’s ridiculous”

Charley Hull has demanded the LPGA Tour take a more ruthless approach to dealing with the slowest players on the circuit.

England’s Charley Hull has implored theLPGA Tour to be more ruthless in dealing with slow play. 

Hull hit out after she endured a disappointing finish at The Annika on Sunday.

American World No.1 Nelly Kordaoverhauled Hull in Florida with a clinical display.

Korda began the final round one stroke behind Hull but hit five birdies in a row from the 11th to pull clear and eventually win her seventh title of the year.

Hull was chasing back-to-back victories but carded a final round of 1-over 71 to share second on 11-under alongside China’s China’s Weiwei Zhang and Korea’s Jin Hee Im.

She refused to blame pace of play for her own performance, but told reporters she is becoming increasingly frustrated with slow players.

MondayQInfo aka Ryan French reported last week that Carlota Ciganda repeatedly warned and then fined $4,000 for playing too slowly.

Ciganda is ranked 63rd on the money list and only the top 60 make it to the $11m CME Group Tour Championship.

Hull reckons it’s simply not enough to issue fines.

“It was crazy,” she told reporters of the pace of play last week.

“I’m quite ruthless, but I said, listen, if you get three bad timings, every time it’s a two shot penalty.

“If you have three of them you lose your Tour card instantly.
