Dont see this too often from an Athlete
-
Charley Hull was asked for an autograph on her way down to the driving range on Tuesday at the U.S. Women’s Open Championship. Nothing unordinary about that, except that the Englishwoman happened to be smoking a cigarette at the time. With her hands full, Hull kept the cigarette in her mouth as she scribbled away. Golf.com’s Zephyr Melton was there to document the moment with his cell phone, and it quickly went viral.

NHL stars Guy Lafleur and Mike Bossy were both heavy smokers during their playing careers. I know Lafleur was still smoking after retirement as he was a common attendant at various trade shows signing autographs on behalf of Quebec companies.
Both Lafleur and Bossy died of lung cancer within a week of one another in 2022.

That picture looks odd. Either the cigarette just fell out or there never was a cigarette to begin with and it was photoshopped in?
I suppose she could have very sticky lipstick on…

No, that is just right.
The cigarette is supposed to dangle.
Arnie was always one of the coolest smokers.

Back when golf had style (and no cell phones).
As Robin Williams said, golf is a game where white men can dress up as black pimps and get away with it.
