Charley Hull hits new low in world rankings ahead of U.S. Women’s Open 2025

Charley Hull's disappointing run on the LPGA Tour continued as she tied for 32nd at the Mexico Riviera Maya Open at Mayakoba 2025. The underwhelming performance resulted in her dipping further in the Rolex Women's Golf Rankings.

As of May 26, Charley Hull was ranked 17th, which is her worst ranking since the Amundi Evian Championship 2023. Earlier this year, she had broken into the top 10, but her last few results have caused her ranking to dip.

This season, Charley Hull has posted just one top-10 finish and will be hoping to get some good results at the U.S. Women's Open 2025.
