Golfer Charley Hull recently played a prank on her caddie, Adam Woodward, giving him a fake scratch-off lottery ticket. The prank made headlines and received mixed reactions.
Speaking at the Women’s British Open at Royal Lytham & St Annes Golf Club in England, Hull addressed the social media criticism but dismissed the backlash. “No,” she said, regarding any regret over the prank, “and people that have complaints about it, I’d say loosen up.”
Woodward, despite initially believing he had won $100,000, took the situation well. Hull recalled, “He thought it was funny after, he’s not uptight. It’s a joke. If people don’t like it, they can lump it, do you know what I mean?” She mentioned plans to buy him 100 scratch cards by the week’s end.
The prank unfolded when Hull purchased the fake ticket and gave it to Woodward, leading him to believe he’d struck it rich. Woodward’s excitement was palpable as he celebrated, thinking he could take the day off. Hull shared, “He’s scratching it, scratching it, scratching, and he’s like ‘Oh my gosh, I’ve won.'”
Despite initial disbelief, Woodward’s reaction was part of the joke, and the story concluded on a lighthearted note. Hull’s performance at the Women’s Open is promising, as she sits tied for seventh at 2-under par after two rounds, aiming for a successful outcome in the tournament.
