LPGA star Charley Hull has friend to thank for not getting drunken forehead tattoo after night out at the club
Charley Hull responds to criticism of Sydney Sweeney
Charley Hull isn’t buying the internet controversy surrounding Sydney Sweeney’s new Novig sports betting commercial. In an exclusive interview, the LPGA standout went straight at the critics who argue the advertisement harms female athletes or regresses women’s sports. Hull defended Sweeney’s commercial appeal and business savvy, dismissing the online commentary as noise created over standard marketing. Watch the full clip as the golf star sets the record straight on brand promotion, sex appeal in advertising, and why the outrage crowd is making a “big hoo-hah out of absolutely nothing.”
The Smokin’ Charley Hull that we all know and love almost became an unrecognizable forehead tattooed version of herself. The LPGA star and everyone else has a friend of hers to thank for not going the forehead tattoo route.
She revealed during a discussion with Golfweek that a night out drinking at a club in Ibiza at just 17 ended with her receiving a tattoo on her foot. It was a tattoo that read “hold tight” and it nearly ended up across her forehead.

When asked if she was to get a tattoo, what she would get, Charley revealed that she already had a few and told the story about her drunken night out.

“I’ve got three tattoos. I’ve got one on my foot. I got drunk when I was in Ibiza when I was 17 years old. Me and my friend James went out partying,” she explained.
“I was coming back from the club, and I thought it would be a great idea to get a tattoo across my head, because me and my best mate, James, our favorite thing we always said to each other was ‘Hold tight, hold tight.'”
She continued, “He wouldn’t let me get it on my forehead. Instead, I got it on my foot and it says, ‘hold tight.’ He got a matching one on his arm.”

The next morning, Charley woke up hungover without any memory whatsoever of getting a tattoo, let alone trying to get one on her forehead.
“‘Bloody hell, was I that drunk last night? I walked back with a plastic bag on my foot.’ He said, ‘No, Charley. That’s the wrapping after you’ve had your tattoo,'” she said.
“I was like, ‘What? I got a tattoo?’ He said, ‘Yeah, you were trying to get it on your forehead and we had to stop you there.'”

Charley’s other two tattoos don’t have quite the story that this one does. And neither of them ended up on her forehead.
She has her ex-husband’s name on her wrist, which she says she’s tried to have removed, and a lightning bolt on her finger to match a tattoo another of her friends has.

One out of three isn’t a great average when it comes to tattoos. Two out of three is much better. Thankfully, she didn’t end up with a forehead tattoo. Not many people can pull that look off.
Getting someone’s name you’re in a relationship with tattooed on your body is almost always a bad idea, but not as bad as an inked-up forehead is.
