British golfer Charley Hull did not give a great account of herself in the opening round at the 2024 Summer Olympic Games and has blamed it on a bathroom mishap.

Hull, who became a fan favorite after she was seen smoking cigarettes during a round earlier this year, finished among the bottom markers at the Olympic golf event after hitting seven bogeys and a double.

Despite the disappointment, she reckons she’s past the worst of it and has played two rounds since.

“First week back really after my injury, so to get that round out of the way and [use it as a] bit of a warmup for the British Open now, I’ll take it,” she said.

Charley Hull Explains Bathroom Accident

The golfer also discussed her injury, revealing she fell out of the shower and thought she tore something. The accident caused her to miss the Aramco Team Series, and it doesn’t appear she was completely over it at the start of her Olympic campaign in Paris, France.

“I fell over when I was on the way back from America,” she explained, per Golf Monthly. “The team and I then had to pull out of the Aramco and had a week-and-a-half off golf because I thought I tore something in there. So I had an MRI and then — my hip was out, shouldn’t have played Evian. So I took like a week and a half off.

The explanation wasn’t quite enough for a reporter, who pressed her for more.

“Fell over coming out of the shower before I was getting my flight, I thought I tore my thing — nothing come up,” she said. “I just have a bit of arthritis now in my shoulder.”

Charley Hull felt like she was close to full strength following her opening-round disappointment, though she admitted it would take some time before she regained total sharpness.

Norwegian pole vaulter Embla Matilde Njerve has been trending online during the current Olympic Games, but fans will likely be embarrassed after finding something out.

Pole vaulters have been a popular show at these games, and not just for their pole vaulting prowess. One athlete went viral after his shaft prevented him from qualifying by latching onto the bar, while another did the rounds because she celebrated by twerking.

Pole vaulting is done at the Olympics, with Mondo Duplantis of Sweden winning the men’s competition and Australian Nina Kennedy winning the women’s. Still, Njerve is the one who’s been attracting most of the attention on social media.
