Charley Hull flexes LPGA's impressive pace of play while PGA Tour continues to struggle

Charley Hull flaunted the impressive pace of play of the recently concluded LPGA Tour event. She competed at last week's Founders Cup. On February 10, she took to her Instagram story to share a post revealing the stats of the tournament.

The English golfer reshared Golf Digest's post on her social media story about the pace of play at the Founders Cup. The average playtime for all four rounds of the LPGA Tour event was around 3-4 hours.

The pace of play has been the talk of the town, and even the PGA Tour is trying its best to tackle the problem.

Charley Hull, however, has been pretty vocal about her opinion on the pace of play. In November 2024, she even suggested removing players for slow play from the LPGA Tour. She said, via The Guardian:

“It’s ridiculous. I feel sorry for the fans how slow it is out there. We were out there for five hours and 40 minutes in round three. We play in a four ball at home on a hard golf course and we’re round in three and a half, four hours. It is pretty crazy.”

The Founders Cup 2025 had a good pace of play, and Hull took to her social media account to praise it.
