GOLF star Charley Hull puffed a cig as she signed autographs for fans as she was hailed as “John Daly’s long-lost sister”.
The Kettering-born beauty, 28, recently finished in the top ten at the Fir Hills Seri Pak Championship in Los Angeles.
According to the Rolex Rankings, Hull is now the 7th best player in the world and has earned over £7million so far in her career.
Away from the golf course, she has amassed quite the following on social media.
And it is no surprise to see that her popularity continues to swell away from the golf course.
The star, who we exclusively revealed is dating Geordie Shore’s Gaz Beadle, boasts over 400,000 followers on Instagram.
And there was a queue of her supporters desperate to get her signature as she arrived at Lancaster Country Club in Pennsylvania for the US Women’s Open.
However, some appeared shocked to see the blonde signing her name for punters while smoking a cigarette.
And that led to others comparing her antics to the legendary Daly as the footage went viral.
One fan commented: “That’s awesome, John Daly-esque.”
Another said: “The John Daly of women’s golf.”

A third hailed her as being “old school” as another jokingly asked: “Is that Jane Daly?”
Back in February, fans said that the 58-year-old Daly’s cigarette-smoking antics are “the only reason I watch golf” as the icon lit up at the PGA Championship.
His former wife Sherrie released a tell-all memoir last year detailing the dramas she faced being married to the American.
Meanwhile, Hull wowed her Instagram followers by showing off her toned abs in a tiny bikini three weeks ago.
Incredibly, she was introduced to golf when she was just two and left school at 13 to be homeschooled and began playing amateur tournaments.
However, it was four years prior when she was first labelled a golf whizz and came to the public’s attention.
Playing in an 18-hole handicap event against adults at Turnberry, she scored 28 stableford points from a handicap of 26.
