Charley Hull, who has finished runner-up at majors on five separate occasions, wasted no time at the AIG Women's British Open. She opened with a birdie on the par-three first hole.
But golf was hardly the main talking point. Hull handed caddie Adam Woodward a fake lottery scratch card before the tournament - one that appeared to show winnings of £100,000. The clip went viral. Not everyone was laughing.
Hull's response to the outrage? Predictably blunt. She said the prank was funny, full stop. Anyone offended by it needs to lighten up, she insisted. Woodward took it well, she added, and she plans to buy him genuine scratch cards to make up for it. How generous.
The caddie himself seemed far less bothered than the internet mob. Woodward confirmed it was the first time Hull had ever pranked him and admitted he found it genuinely amusing. He hinted at payback, joking he might take her car. Fair play.
On the course, Hull confessed to nerves on the opening tee but kept her composure throughout the round. She sits five shots behind leader Jeeno Thitikul, who delivered a flawless bogey-free opening round.
