Charley Hull faces backlash over fake lottery prank on caddie

English golfer Charley Hull is facing criticism after revealing that she fooled her longtime caddie, Adam Woodward, into thinking he had won £100,000 on a fake lottery card. Hull described the prank during a news conference ahead of the AIG Women’s Open and later posted video of it on X. She said Woodward believed he had won the money before being told the card was fake. The reaction on social media was largely negative, with some users calling the joke unkind, while others defended it as a private prank between people who have worked together for years. Hull is preparing to compete at the AIG Women’s Open, where the winner will receive $1.5 million US.
