Charley Hull thinks three-time PGA Tour winner will become world number one, ‘that’s how high I rate him’

Michael Brennan is quickly establishing himself as one of the PGA Tour’s most exciting young talents, and his rapid rise has caught the attention of fellow professional golfer Charley Hull. The 26-year-old Brennan has already secured three victories on the tour, including his first win last season, which earned him direct membership on the PGA Tour by bypassing the Korn Ferry Tour.

His latest triumph came at the Baycurrent Classic in Japan, further solidifying his status as a player to watch in the coming years. Hull, who has played alongside Brennan, praised his skill and personality, calling him one of the most impressive golfers she’s ever seen.

She believes Brennan has the potential to become world number one, highlighting his dominance in key areas like driving distance and strokes gained off the tee, where he ranks third on tour in 2026. While Brennan has yet to finish inside the top 20 at any major, Hull is confident he will soon be a contender on the biggest stages, including a potential Ryder Cup appearance in 2027.
