Charley Hull shared about her upcoming plans for the Mexico Riviera Maya Open

Charley Hull joined the pre-tournament press conference at the El Camaleón Golf Course to talk about her upcoming plans for the Mexico Riviera Maya Open. The golfer was asked whether she was excited for the upcoming tournament. Answering the question, she said ( via ASAP Sports):

“Really excited this week because Mexican is my favorite food in the whole entire world, and you don't get it in England, so I just can't wait to eat loads…I flew in last night at 8:00 because I had to do something at home on Monday. So got in pretty late last night, and I was greeted at the hotel with a singer, Mexican singers and stuff and got taken like a little (indiscernible)to my hotel room, and it was really cool. I had some chips and guac.”

The golfer continued to talk about Mexican food. Her words were:

“Coming from England we have no proper really Mexican like restaurants, so I just think -- like English people just think Mexican food is just like fajitas...When I come to the U.S. I always look for a traditional family-run Mexican restaurant because I love the taste of food and it's just so nice.”

Hull will begin to play the tournament on Thursday, and a cut system will take place after two rounds of the competition.
