Adam Woodward has been on Charley Hull's bag since the middle of 2015, a couple of years after the Kettering star turned professional in 2013.

While working with Woodward, Hull has won twice on the LPGA Tour - the 2016 CME Group Tour Championship and the 2022 The Ascendant LPGA benefiting Volunteers of America.

The pair also enjoyed a remarkable 2023 Solheim Cup together, which ended in a 14-14 tie at Finca Cortesin in Spain.

Hull speaks highly of Woodward, highlighting that his experience is essential for her to perform at a high level.

"He helps to keep me calm and really knows his stuff," said Hull.

"He’s been on the Tour something like 25 years, and we started working together in 2015.

"He’s great for me, in between shots we talk about normal stuff and not about golf."

In 2020, Hull told Golf Monthly that Woodward was like a "best friend", and revealed that they had worked together in the past before splitting for about a year. 

Woodward fell into the golf world as a caddie in 1995, when family friend and Cowra (Woodward's hometown in Australia) professional Mardi Lunn offered him the chance to be on her bag.

Unhappy with working at his parent's travel business, Adam took up the offer, and has worked as a caddie ever since.

Woodward spent six years with Lunn, before working for different female players; he also spent time caddying on the the Seniors and Nationwide tours.

Woodward ended up on the bag of Sun Youn Yoo, a player who won the Kraft Nabsico Championship in 2012 with Adam on her bag, which is his first, and to date only, Major victory as a caddie.
