Hull wins LET season opener; Is major breakthrough on the horizon?

English women didn’t wait long to build on the momentum they created last year.

Charley Hull won the Ladies European Tour’s season opener in Abu Dhabi Saturday, going wire to wire to claim the Fatima Bint Mubarak Ladies Open.

Hull’s fast start begs a large question: Is she poised to follow Georgia Hall’s breakthrough and win a major this year?

Hall won the Women’s British Open in her native England a year ago, taking the trophy at Royal Lytham & St. Annes. This year’s Women’s British Open will be played at Woburn Golf Club in England.
