Hull rues 'frustrating' near-miss as wait for elusive major continues

Charley Hull admitted another near-miss in a major was "pretty annoying" after narrowly falling short in her bid for a historic comeback victory at the US Women’s Open.

Hull was seven strokes off the halfway lead and outside the top 40 after rounds of 73 and 72 over the first two days at Riviera Country Club, only to charge back into contention with a third-round 65 - the lowest of her major career - on Saturday and a strong start to Sunday's final round.
