While there has been no update from Charley Hull about what this "exciting" news is, on the competitive front, she was last seen at the LPGA T-Mobile Match Play this week. However, she couldn't make the cut into the Round of 16 and crashed out of the tournament.

At the time of writing, the final match between Lauren Coughlin and Madelene Sagstrom was underway with the latter being 3UP through 7 holes.

The LPGA T-Mobile Match Play event has a unique pool-based format. The 64-player field was divided into 16 groups of four. All these four players went against each other for three rounds.

The golfer with the best head-to-head score in the group advanced to the Round of 16. The quarter-finals were played on Saturday with the semi-finals and finals taking place on Sunday at the Shadow Creek Golf Club, Las Vegas.

Charley Hull was in Group 6 with Ashleigh Buhai, Esther Henselheit and Alexa Pano. In the first round, Hull defeated Pano 5-3 and tied with Buhai in the second round. However, in the third round Henselheit beat Hull, 5-4. The Briton had one win, one tie and one loss to her name after the one-on-one fixtures concluded.

Within her group, Alexa Pano had three losses and Esther Henselheit had two wins and one loss. Ashleigh Buhai on the other hand had two wins and one tie. The scores ranked Buhai higher than her group and she eventually qualified for the Round of 16. However, the 35-year-old lost to Celine Boutier in the Round of 16 and bowed out of the event.

The LPGA Tour has another stop in California before moving to Texas for the season's first Major Championship - the Chevron Championship towards the end of April. Charley Hull can possibly play next at the JM Eagle LM Championship at the El Caballero Country Club in Los Angeles from April 17th to 20th, 2025.

It will be the final LPGA Tour event before the 2025 Chevron Championship.
