Charley Hull has spoken in depth about the 'scary', 'weird' and 'embarrassing' experience of being stretchered off a golf course.

'And then Tuesday I woke up and I still wasn't feeling very well. I had a practise round and I was just so tired. All my bones was aching in my body, and I had a really high temperature. 'The next day I played the Pro-Am and I soldiered through it because I didn't want to let my Pro-Am team down. But I felt really rough, and all my bones were aching still. 'Then I woke up the next morning and I felt really dizzy, cold sweats, had no energy. I got through about 12 holes, and I was actually playing really solid golf.

I don't know if anyone has ever fainted before, but .your eyesight goes and then your hearing goes, and then it goes all muffled. 'So I sat down, got up, hit my bunker shot, actually nearly made birdie. Walked to the next tee, called the medics, and then before I hit my tee shot, my eyesight went again, my hearing went, and then my knees gave away and I, like, collapsed and fainted. And then I got back up, hit my tee shot. 'I was thinking, I've only got six holes left. I've got some birdie holes. Like, just finish the day, get to three- or four-under and I'm sound. Walked off the tee box, 20 yards off, I don't even remember anything. 'My caddie said my eyes rolled to the back of my head and I was out for over a minute. And the security guard and the medic caught me just before I was about to hit my head on a concrete slab. So I was out for a minute.

That's why I to had to get a stretcher out, off, which was quite embarrassing but there you go. Put IV drip on me. They took my blood pressure. It was 80/50 which is quite low. My blood sugar was 0.4. I think I just had a really bad virus.' Hull, who she still doesn't feel 100 per cent as she steps back into action this week, added: 'It was weird, but it was actually quite scary. when I woke up from fainting I felt like I had come out of a really nice deep sleep. Like, I felt really nice. I was like, oh, this feels good.
