In the post-round press conference, she opened up about playing in the links courses. Hull has stated that she didn't like to play on the links courses a few times in her previous interviews, and on Sunday, when she was asked about the same, she said (via ASAP Sports):

"I don't. It doesn't suit me. I generally find it so hard to visualize shots. So for me to actually be, like swung it as an ease as I did today, I was actually really proud of myself."

In 2020, when the Women's Open was held at the Royal Troon, Hull talked about playing on the links. She said (via The Guardian):

"I’m not the biggest fan of links golf. I like playing with my friends and stuff as a bit of fun but I find it hard to score around sometimes. I like parkland golf courses and American-style.”

Moreover, ahead of the start of the 2025 AIG Women's Open, she opened up about the links courses. She said (via Today's Golf):

"Not in competitions. I like playing them with friends when you can laugh at everyone hitting bad shots, because I’m usually the one hitting the bad shots. But in a tournament, I like more of a parkland golf course. But I’ve just got to see it as a challenge."
