While the WNBA courts are quiet during the off-season, the Indiana Fever stars are making a deafening noise on the fairways, proving that their competitive fire never truly hibernates. In a move that has sent social media into a frenzy, fan-favorite guard Lexie Hull has gone viral yet again, this time for a “shocking update” that showcases her surprising prowess—and undeniable grit—on the golf course.

The video, which has rapidly circulated among sports fans, features Hull taking on a grueling “three-hole challenge” at the Woodland course. But this wasn’t a sunny, leisurely stroll on the green. True to her tough-as-nails reputation on the basketball court, Hull faced down the elements, playing in a biting 45-degree chill that would send most casual golfers running for the clubhouse.

Battling the Elements

“I will be going from the whites… 140 yards directly into the wind,” Hull announced confidently at the start of the challenge, standing on the tee box of the 12th hole, a par 3. Clad in cold-weather gear and sporting a golf glove that she refused to take off even while putting (“It doesn’t bother me, my hands are cold!”), Hull looked every bit the athlete ready for battle.

The “shocking” part of the update? Just how natural she looked. Despite the freezing wind, Hull smashed an 8-iron that landed agonizingly close to the pin. “That was the closest I’ve been to a hole-in-one in a while,” her opponent noted in disbelief. It was a moment that perfectly encapsulated Hull’s crossover appeal: incredible athletic coordination mixed with a relatable, down-to-earth vibe.

The “Tres Leches” Golf Takeover

This viral moment didn’t happen in a vacuum. It is the latest chapter in what fans are affectionately dubbing the “Tres Leches Golf Takeover.” Hull, along with teammates Caitlin Clark and Sophie Cunningham, has been dominating the off-season news cycle with their golfing exploits. From caddying at the LPGA’s “The Annika” Pro-Am—where they donned custom bibs joking about holding “snacks and beer”—to posting hilarious clips of shanked shots and friendly roasts, the trio has turned golf into the WNBA’s unofficial second sport.

However, this specific video strip-mines the comedy for raw competition. Hull wasn’t just there to pose; she was there to win. After her near-perfect tee shot on the par 3, she faced a “tough birdie” putt. The ball rolled just past the hole, leading to a tense par save. “Good fight,” her opponent remarked, acknowledging the mental toughness that Fever fans saw all season long during the team’s playoff push.

A Star on the Rise

The match continued to a par 4, where the banter flowed as freely as the swings. Hull, playing a hole her opponent claimed to have played “75 times more,” refused to be intimidated. She crushed her drive, landing in a prime position that mirrored her opponent’s almost exactly. “We’re like in the exact same spot… my shot looks a little better,” she joked, displaying the signature trash-talking wit that has endeared her to millions.

What makes this content resonate so deeply with fans is the human element. We are used to seeing these athletes as gladiators in jerseys, focused and intense. Seeing Hull bundled up, laughing about “tough birdies,” and celebrating bogeys to tie a match reminds us that they are also young women enjoying their lives and expanding their horizons.

The Verdict

By the end of the video, the verdict was clear. “Lexie Hull is getting her golfing in… she looks the part of an incredible golfer,” the host concluded. While he playfully questioned the consistency of her actual game, he couldn’t deny the vibe. Hull brings an infectious energy to everything she does, whether it’s locking down opponents on the hardwood or sinking putts in near-freezing weather.

This “shocking update” isn’t about a trade, an injury, or a scandal. It’s about something far more refreshing: the joy of sport. Lexie Hull is proving that the modern athlete is multidimensional, media-savvy, and always ready to compete—even if it means wearing a winter coat to do it.

For Indiana Fever fans anxiously awaiting the 2026 season, these viral moments are a lifeline. They keep the connection alive and the excitement building. If Lexie Hull attacks the next WNBA season with the same precision and determination she showed on that freezing golf course, the rest of the league better watch out.
