Charley Hull has revealed that “strawberry mousse” is the secret tactic which she hopes will see the her join the youngsters at the top of the sport after breaking her drought on the US Tour. She explained that she has reverted to a routine which her father, Dave, taught her as a toddler. “I have this swing called Strawberry Moose. Like my back swing goes to strawberry, comes down, goes to moose, a bit faster,” she said.
“I’ve had it in my head since the Olympics (where she finished seventh). It feels good. ‘Strawberry moose’ — my dad used to say it to me when I was two years old to get my rhythm.” Now that the 20-year-old has won her first LPGA title, her first mission is to return to Kettering “to go on a pub crawl with my mates”, but despite winning almost £400,000 for her glory at the Tiburón Golf Club in Naples “I’m not going to buy all the drinks”.
