Annabell Fuller joins Georgina Black on Her Game to talk about her AIG Women’s Open experience, her love of sport and the unexpected decision to turn professional.
Making the cut at the AIG Women’s Open sounds like a dream week. Annabell Fuller’s account also brings out the nerves, setbacks and last-minute scramble for accommodation that came with qualifying on the Monday.
In this relaxed Her Game conversation with Georgina Black, Fuller recalls the excitement of seeing her name near the top of the leaderboard — and the challenge of recovering from a double bogey at the start of her second round.
Her approach to a bad shot is refreshingly straightforward: accept the frustration, then move on. “Once you’ve hit it, you can’t turn the clock back,” she says.
There is plenty beyond the Open, too. Fuller talks about enjoying the work that goes into her golf, mixing practice drills with competitive rounds among friends. Her enthusiasm for CrossFit and other sports offers a glimpse of how she switches off from tournament life while still enjoying being an athlete.
The conversation also touches on the attention her crop tops attracted, and why feeling comfortable in what she wears matters to her confidence.
One of the most interesting stories comes towards the end: a trip to Q-School intended as a learning experience left her with a much bigger decision about her future.
It is an easy, engaging watch, with enough about Fuller’s golf and personality to make you want to hear more.
