Amateur career
[edit]Hall began playing golf aged seven at Canford Magna Golf Club in Dorset, when she accompanied her father Wayne to the driving range. She entered children's competitions there, where she competed for chocolate bars.[2] In 2009, Hall was crowned English girls under-13 champion, and the following year she won the English girls under-15 title.[3][4] She represented England in the 2011 European Girls' Team Championship, where she helped England win the silver medal.[5] Hall then achieved victory at the 2012 Girls Amateur Championship and was subsequently nominated for the BBC Young Sports Personality of the Year award the same year.[6][7] She followed this with two gold medals at the 2013 Australian Youth Olympic Festival, where she was the flag bearer for the British team in the opening ceremony.[8][9] Hall was then victorious at the 2013 British Ladies Amateur Golf Championship.[2]
Hall became the European number one ranked amateur, and she was invited to play at the 2013 Kraft Nabisco Championship, her first ever appearance at a major, where she missed the cut.[10][2] She then turned down the chance to enter the 2013 U.S. Women's Open, in order to compete for Great Britain and Ireland in the Vagliano Trophy in France. There, Great Britain and Ireland were defeated 7.5–16.5 by Europe.[11][12] She then competed in the 2013 Women's British Open at St Andrews, where she finished as the leading amateur.[13] Around this time, Hall left her studies at Oakmead College to concentrate on her golf career,[2] and in July 2013, she was selected to play in the Junior Solheim Cup the following month in Colorado, USA.[14]
In June 2014, Hall competed in the Curtis Cup for Great Britain and Ireland. She won her singles match against Kyung Kim 3 and 2, but USA won the event 13–7 at St Louis Country Club, Missouri.[15] She then competed in the 2014 Women's British Open at Royal Birkdale and finished T29th. She was unable to collect what would have been around €18,000 in prize money due to her amateur status. After the event, Hall decided to turn professional, saying, "I’ve won a few amateur competitions and I don’t think there is a lot of point in playing those again, but it has been an amazing experience and I will never forget it."[16]
Professional career
[edit]2014–2019
[edit]Hall turned professional in July 2014,[16] and finished third in her first tournament as a professional at the Ingarö Ladies Open in Stockholm, Sweden.[17] Hall won her first professional title in September at the Open Generali de Strasbourg on the LET Access Series, which she won by four strokes.[18] She hit a hole-in-one at the Dubai Ladies Masters in December, with her feat earning her a £50,000 Mercedes.[19] The following week, Hall entered the Laila Aicha Tour School in Morocco to try and earn a tour card for the Ladies European Tour. She finished second in the event and thus won her tour card for the following year.[20]
In 2015, Hall recorded six top-20 finishes on the Ladies European Tour and made 11 out of 12 cuts.[13] She also made her debut in the U.S. Women's Open, arriving as a late reserve having originally failed to qualify. The tournament also marked her first start in a major as a professional.[21] At the tournament, Hall missed the cut by ten strokes at Lancaster Country Club, Pennsylvania, after shooting 14-over-par.[22][23] In December, she ended her season with a T12th finish at the Dubai Ladies Masters.[24]
In February 2016, Hall won the Oates Victorian Open on the ALPG Tour at Barwon Heads, Victoria.[25] She missed the cut in the 2016 Women's British Open at Woburn,[26] but finished runner-up at the Fatima Bint Mubarak Ladies Open in November to Beth Allen. Hall shot an eight-under-par 64 during her second round there to equal the course record in Abu Dhabi, but finished the tournament three shots adrift.[27][28] She concluded her year with five top-10 finishes in succession on the Ladies European Tour with a T5th finish at the Dubai Ladies Masters in the final event of the year.[29] She ended 2016 at 108 in the world rankings.[30]

She then finished T8th at the Thornberry Creek LPGA Classic and T51st at the U.S. Women's Open.[32] Hall then made her debut for the European team in the 2017 Solheim Cup. Europe were defeated 11.5–16.5 by USA at Des Moines Golf and Country Club, Iowa. She finished the event with a 2–3–0 (win–loss–tie) record and lost to Paula Creamer (1 up) in the singles on the final day. Reflecting on the tournament, Hall said, "It was an incredible experience throughout every minute. I already cannot wait for two years time."[33][34]
Hall finished T3rd in the 2017 Women's British Open, five strokes behind champion In-Kyung Kim at Kingsbarns.[35] She then finished T10th at the Evian Championship, the final major of 2017.[36] Hall won the Ladies European Tour Order of Merit in 2017 after recording seven top-10 finishes during the season. These included a T4th at the Lalla Meryem Cup and T9th at the Women's Scottish Open. After winning the Order of Merit, Hall said, "It was one of my targets at the start of this year and I’m over the moon...this is one of the biggest moments in my career."[37][38] In December 2017, she successfully made it through qualifying school to earn her LPGA tour card.[39]
In February 2018, Hall finished in a tie for third at the ALPG Oates Victorian Open, and she followed this up by finishing T9th at the Canberra Classic.[40][41] After she began playing on the LPGA Tour, Hall initially found it difficult adjusting her game in the United States, and she asked former golf professionals Ken Brown and Tom Lehman for advice.[42][43] She secured her first LPGA top-10 finish of the year at the Thornberry Creek LPGA Classic in July, where she finished T7th.[44]
Hall won her first major championship at the 2018 Women's British Open in August, finishing two shots ahead of Pornanong Phatlum at Royal Lytham & St Annes. Hall hit six birdies in her final round 67 to become the fifth British winner of a ladies major. Afterwards, Hall said, "It was my goal when I was nine years old on the putting green: 'This six-footer's for the British Open' and to actually have that, and luckily it was just a tap-in, I'm over the moon. I'm so happy."[45][46] She ended the season by winning her second consecutive Ladies European Tour Order of Merit, becoming the youngest player to defend the title.[47] Hall was also named the Players' Player of the Year on the Ladies European Tour, and she finished the year eighth in the world rankings.[41] At the end of the year, she was named Sunday Times Young Sportswomen of the Year.[48]
In August 2019, Hall finished T35th in her defence of the Women's British Open at Woburn.[49] Before the tournament, she revealed that her replica trophy from her win in 2018 had been stolen from her car two months previously.[50] In the 2019 Solheim Cup at Gleneagles Hotel, Scotland. Hall won all four of her matches to help Europe to a 14.5–13.5 win over USA. She won three matches partnering Céline Boutier and then beat Lexi Thompson 2 and 1 in the final day singles.[51][52] Hall called Europe's win "absolutely awesome".[53] On the LPGA Tour in 2019, she recorded three top-10 finishes, with a best placing of T4th at the Volunteers of America Classic.[54] Hall's world ranking dropped to 41 at the end of the year.[55]
2020–present
[edit]In 2020, the tour was heavily affected by the COVID-19 pandemic. Hall competed on the Rose Ladies Series, winning event six at Bearwood Lakes and event seven at The Shire. She finished runner-up in the overall standings to Charley Hull.[56][57][58] In September, she won for the second time on the LPGA tour. Her maiden win in the United States was secured at the Cambia Portland Classic, where she overcame Ashleigh Buhai in a sudden-death playoff. Prior to the playoff, Hall had held a one-stroke lead with one hole remaining, but scored a bogey, before triumphing at the second playoff hole.[59] In November, Hall hit a seven-under-par 64 in her opening round to set a new course record at Royal Greens Golf and Country Club in the Saudi Ladies International.[60] She finished runner-up, after Emily Kristine Pedersen defeated her in a playoff.[61]
Hall declined the opportunity to compete for Great Britain at the Tokyo Summer Olympics in 2021, citing concerns about her "exhausting schedule" and the effect it would have on her preparation for upcoming events.[62] She then finished T6th at the 2021 Evian Championship in France. She shot a 64 in the final round to finish the tournament 13-under-par, five strokes behind tournament winner Minjee Lee.[63] In the 2021 Women's British Open at Carnoustie, Hall shot a five-under-par 67 on the final day to finish in a tie for second, one shot behind Anna Nordqvist.[64] Hall was a member of the European team that triumphed 15–13 over USA in the 2021 Solheim Cup at the Inverness Club, Toledo, Ohio. She finished 1–2–1 from her four matches with her win coming in the foursomes with teammate Leona Maguire. They beat Yealimi Noh and Brittany Altomare 1 up. In the singles, Hall was defeated by Nelly Korda 1 up.[65][66] During 2021, Hall recorded six top-10 finishes from eight starts on the Ladies European Tour, but with no victories.[54] She finished the year at 29 in the world rankings.[67]
In March 2022, Hall won the Saudi Ladies International in Jeddah by five strokes, to win her second Ladies European Tour competition.[68] Hall came close to winning the Aramco Series-London in June, but finished runner-up after Bronte Law made a 50-foot eagle putt at the final hole to claim victory.[69] At the 2022 Evian Championship, she finished T8th, marking her third top-10 finish in her last six majors.[70] In August, she finished T22nd in the Women's British Open at Muirfield,[71] and then finished third at the ISPS Handa World Invitational in Northern Ireland.[72] Hall finished 2022 at 25 in the world rankings.[73]
Hall was defeated in a playoff by Céline Boutier at the 2023 LPGA Drive On Championship, after both players had finished 20-under-par after four rounds.[74] The following week, at the Los Angeles Open, she finished runner-up for the second week in succession, this time by one stroke to Yin Ruoning. During her third round in Los Angeles, Hall made two eagles and five birdies to equal her career best round of nine-under-par.[75][76] She also finished T12th at the 2023 Chevron Championship, but her form then dipped and she missed the cut at two of the next three majors.[77] In the 2023 Solheim Cup at Finca Cortesin in Casares, Andalusia, Hall finished with a 1–2–1 record. Her win came in the day one four-balls with Leona Maguire when they defeated Lexi Thompson and Lilia Vu 1 up. In the singles, she finished in a tie with Andrea Lee. Europe and USA finished tied on 14 points, meaning that Europe retained the trophy.[78][79]
Hall was selected by Great Britain for the 2024 Summer Olympics in Paris.[80] She finished T36th on five-over-par, 15 strokes behind gold medalist Lydia Ko.[81] In August 2024, Hall was named by Suzann Pettersen as one of her wildcard picks for Europe's 2024 Solheim Cup team at the Robert Trent Jones Golf Club in Gainesville, Virginia. Explaining her choice, Pettersen said, "She has a great Solheim record and I really like her style in matchplay." Hall won two of her four matches, including a 4 and 3 victory against Andrea Lee in the final day singles, but could not prevent USA securing the overall victory. She finished the tournament with a 2–2–0 record.[82][83] At the end of a difficult year, her ranking dropped to 65, and Hall said, "You always have a year which isn't your best and this year that's happened to me."[84][85]
Hall finished T28th at the Chevron Championship in April 2025, after finishing one-over-par.[86] She only recorded one top-10 finish in her first eight tournaments of 2025, missing five cuts, and saw her ranking fall to number 95. Hall consequently missed out on an appearance at the 2025 U.S. Women's Open, marking the first time since 2016 that she had missed the event.[87]
Personal life
[edit]Hall was born to parents Wayne, a plasterer, and Samantha, a hairdresser.[88] Hall has revealed that her family had to sell valuables to help fund her early ambitions in the sport.[89] She was born during the 1996 Masters, which was won by Nick Faldo in Augusta, Georgia, which inspired her name.[42] Her father acted as her caddie during the 2018 Women's British Open. After Hall shot 67 in her first round there, she banned him from changing his socks for the remainder of the tournament, which she went on to win.[42][90]
Hall was once in a relationship with Harry Tyrrell, after the pair had originally met on Instagram. He later became her caddie.[88][91] In 2023, Hall revealed that she was in a same-sex relationship with American golfer Ryann O'Toole, whom she met on the LPGA Tour. Hall said she hoped that her announcement would inspire people to be "true to themselves."[92][93] In July 2025, Hall announced on Instagram that she had become engaged to Irish golfer Paul Dunne.[94]
Hall has been close friends with fellow golfer Charley Hull since she was eleven. The pair grew up together and were inseparable. Hall says of their friendship, "We know how to pull each other up when we are down and vice versa."[95]
Hall was appointed Member of the Order of the British Empire (MBE) in the 2019 Birthday Honours for services to golf. She was the fifth British female golfer to receive the honour.[96] In June 2023, Hall launched a golf academy for children at Paulton's Golf Centre in Hampshire.[97]
She is a supporter of Premier League football club AFC Bournemouth.[98]

View on GrokipediaEarly life and amateur career
Early life
Georgia Kelly Hall was born on 12 April 1996 in Bournemouth, England, and raised in the nearby town of Broadstone, Dorset. She grew up in a family with deep ties to golf; her parents, Wayne and Samantha Hall, were both avid players, and her father often served as her caddie during her early years in the sport.[5] Hall was introduced to golf at the age of seven, initially through family outings at local clubs in Dorset, such as Canford Magna Golf Club where she first visited the driving range with her father, and later Ferndown Golf Club where she joined as a junior and began formal lessons. Her early passion for the game was evident, as she quickly progressed to competing in junior events, winning county championships in Dorset before turning 12. She also won the English Girls' Under-13 Open Championship in 2009 at age 13, becoming the youngest winner, and the English Under-15 Championship.[6]Amateur career
Georgia Hall began her competitive amateur career with notable success, winning the British Girls' Amateur Championship in 2012 at the age of 16.[7] This victory marked her as one of England's top junior talents and led to her selection for international team events.[8] In 2013, Hall's amateur prowess peaked with several key achievements. She claimed the British Ladies' Amateur Championship at Machynys Peninsula Golf Club in South Wales, defeating Luna Sobron of Spain 1-up in the final match after qualifying through stroke play.[9] Later that year, representing England at the European Ladies' Team Championship in Paphos, Cyprus, she contributed to the team's gold medal and earned an individual gold medal for her performance.[8] Additionally, Hall tied for low amateur honors at the Women's British Open at St Andrews, finishing at 6-over par alongside Lydia Ko after opening with a 68.[10] Hall trained at Parkstone Golf Club in Poole, Dorset, where she honed her skills following her junior successes.[11] She represented Great Britain and Ireland in the 2013 Vagliano Trophy at Golf de Chantilly, France, where the team fell 16.5-7.5 to the Continent of Europe despite her strong individual play in singles and foursomes matches.[12] These accomplishments, including topping the Ladies European Amateur Ranking that year, positioned Hall as a leading prospect, prompting her decision to turn professional in 2014 after securing sponsorship support.[13][14]Professional career
2014–2018
Georgia Hall turned professional in July 2014, shortly after competing in the Women's British Open as an amateur.[15] She initially competed on the Ladies European Tour Access Series (LETAS) and the ALPG Tour, securing her first professional victory at the 2014 Open Generali de Strasbourg on the LETAS, where she won by four strokes.[8] In 2016, Hall claimed her second title at the Oates Victorian Open on the ALPG Tour, demonstrating steady progress in her early professional years.[16] Hall's breakthrough on the main Ladies European Tour (LET) came in 2017, when she recorded seven top-10 finishes, including a tie for third at the World Ladies Championship and a tie for fourth at the Lalla Meryem Cup.[17] These performances propelled her to the top of the LET Order of Merit with earnings of €368,935, earning her the Player of the Year award and marking her as the youngest winner of the honor at age 21.[18] Her consistent results also elevated her Rolex Women's World Golf Ranking from 108th at the end of 2016 to 40th by the close of 2017. Additionally, she made her Solheim Cup debut that year for Team Europe, going 2-3-0.[7] In late 2017, Hall finished tied for seventh at the LPGA Final Qualifying Tournament, earning full LPGA Tour membership for the 2018 season.[7] As a rookie on the LPGA, she competed in 19 events, making 15 cuts and achieving three top-10 finishes, including a runner-up at the Marathon Classic.[7] Her standout moment came at the 2018 Women's British Open at Royal Lytham & St Annes Golf Club, where she carded a final-round 67 to win by two strokes over Pornanong Phatlum, claiming her first major championship and first LPGA Tour title with a prize of $490,000.[19] This victory boosted her world ranking into the top 20 and helped her repeat as LET Order of Merit champion with €512,101 in earnings, while she finished second in the LPGA's Louise Suggs Rolex Rookie of the Year standings.[18]2019–2023
Following her breakthrough 2018 major victory, Georgia Hall transitioned to a full-time schedule on the LPGA Tour in 2019, competing in 24 events and making 19 cuts while earning $403,490 and recording three top-10 finishes, including a T4 at the Volunteers of America Classic. She maintained strong contention in majors that year, achieving top-10 results at the U.S. Women's Open (T10), The Evian Championship (T10), and the Women's British Open (T5), which helped stabilize her world ranking at No. 41 by year's end despite a dip from her 2018 peak of No. 6. Hall also contributed to Europe's Solheim Cup victory, going undefeated with a 3-0-0 record in match play, underscoring her team reliability during a season of adaptation to the LPGA's demands.[7][20] The 2020 season was disrupted by the COVID-19 pandemic, which condensed the LPGA schedule to 12 events for Hall and led to the cancellation of the Women's British Open, but she capitalized on the limited opportunities by securing her first U.S. victory at the Cambia Portland Classic, defeating Ashleigh Buhai in a sudden-death playoff after both finished at 12-under-par. This win propelled her earnings to $444,563 (21st on the money list) and included a career-best T3 at the ANA Inspiration, one of her strongest major showings amid the tour's health protocols and travel restrictions that tested players' resilience. Hall's ranking rebounded to the top 20 by season's end, reflecting her consistency with three top-10s overall, though the pandemic's impact limited her to fewer starts and exposed occasional form inconsistencies in later events like the U.S. Women's Open (T102). In 2021, Hall played 20 LPGA events, posting 18 cuts made and $856,659 in earnings (20th on the money list), highlighted by a runner-up finish at the AIG Women's Open where she carded a final-round 66 to challenge the leaders closely. She added three top-10s, including T5 at The Evian Championship, but faced a Solheim Cup defeat with a 1-2-1 record for Europe; her ranking held steady in the top 20. The following year, 2022, saw Hall balance LPGA and LET commitments, winning the Aramco Saudi Ladies International on the LET by five strokes at 11-under-par for her second tour title there, finishing 10th on the Race to Costa del Sol despite only seven starts. On the LPGA, she earned $1,045,967 (24th) with four top-10s, including T3s at the LPGA MEDIHEAL Championship and The Evian Championship, and ended the year ranked No. 25 worldwide.[21] Hall's 2023 campaign featured five LPGA top-10s and $911,664 in earnings (31st), with runner-up finishes at the LPGA Drive On Championship (lost in playoff to Céline Boutier at 20-under) and the DIO Implant LA Open, demonstrating her scoring prowess but also highlighting close calls in pursuit of another victory. She achieved a T6 at The Evian Championship but struggled in other majors, such as T91 at the U.S. Women's Open, amid a late-season foot injury that forced her withdrawal from the International Crown team event. Representing Europe in her fourth Solheim Cup, Hall recorded a 1-2-1 mark in a tied series, while her ranking climbed to No. 21 by year's end, reflecting mid-career stability punctuated by injury challenges and form fluctuations that tested her endurance as a top-20 contender.2024–present
Hall began the 2024 season with a tied for 23rd finish at The Chevron Championship, scoring 287 (-1) over four rounds at The Club at Carlton Woods. She then teamed up with longtime friend Charley Hull for the Dow Championship, where the English duo posted a strong tied for fifth place at 18-under par, marking Hall's only top-10 finish of the LPGA season. She represented Great Britain at the Paris Olympics, finishing T36, and Team Europe at the Solheim Cup, posting a 2-2-0 record in a 14.5-13.5 defeat. Her LPGA season included 20 events with 17 cuts made and total earnings of $549,436.[7] Returning to the Ladies European Tour, Hall competed in the PIF London Championship at Centurion Club, securing a tied for third place finish in the individual competition while her team claimed victory at 24-under par.[22] Her prior ranking stability from the 2019–2023 period helped provide resilience amid a season focused on consistent play rather than wins.[23] In 2025, Hall announced her engagement to former DP World Tour winner and caddie Paul Dunne in July, a personal milestone that she credited with boosting her on-course morale during a challenging year.[4] Highlights included a tied for 19th at the AIG Women's Open at Royal Porthcawl, where she finished at 1-under par and earned $112,489, her best major result of the season.[24] She also placed tied for 28th at the ISPS Handa Women's Scottish Open (4-under, $17,584) but missed cuts at the KPMG Women's PGA Championship and JM Eagle LA Championship.[25] Hall has faced ongoing challenges balancing the demanding LPGA and LET schedules, playing 12 LPGA events through November with 6 cuts made and earnings of $214,358, prioritizing European commitments for ranking points.[26] As of November 2025, she remains active, finishing tied for 16th at even par in the ISPS Handa World Invitational and continuing to accumulate points toward 2028 Olympic qualification through her world ranking performances.[27][28]Personal life
Family and relationships
Georgia Hall maintains close ties with her family, who have provided unwavering support throughout her golf career. Her father, Wayne Hall, a keen golfer himself, introduced her to the sport in her early years and notably caddied for her during the 2018 AIG Women's British Open at Royal Lytham & St Annes, where she secured her first major victory.[29][30] Her mother, Samantha Hall, has also been a constant source of encouragement, often accompanying her to tournaments and offering emotional backing during pivotal moments.[31] This familial involvement extends beyond her amateur days, with her parents continuing to attend major events and celebrate her achievements, such as dedicating her 2018 Open win to her late grandfather.[30] In her romantic life, Hall has been in a relationship with Paul Dunne, an Irish professional golfer and former DP World Tour winner who turned to caddying after stepping back from full-time competition.[4] Dunne frequently supports Hall on the LPGA Tour by carrying her bag, providing strategic insights from his own playing experience and helping her navigate the demands of the professional circuit.[32] Their partnership was elevated in July 2025 when Hall announced their engagement, marking a significant personal milestone amid her ongoing career.[33] As of November 2025, the couple has no children and is not married, with Dunne's role as both partner and occasional caddie underscoring how their relationship bolsters Hall's resilience on tour.[34]Philanthropy and interests
Hall has been actively involved in charitable efforts to promote women's and junior golf. As an ambassador for The R&A, she supports initiatives aimed at inspiring more women, girls, and families to take up the sport, emphasizing her passion for growing the game at the grassroots level.[35][36] In 2021, she participated in the Agilitas Golf Day, where partners raised £4,000 for a children's charity, and she donated signed memorabilia to boost fundraising efforts.[37][38] During the 2023 U.S. Women's Open at Pebble Beach, Hall engaged in local community activities to support causes that sustain opportunities for women's majors, highlighting her commitment to the long-term health of the professional game.[39] Beyond philanthropy, Hall maintains a strong interest in fitness to complement her golf performance. She incorporates Pilates into her routine, particularly during off-weeks, to build core strength and flexibility essential for her swing.[40] During the 2020 COVID-19 lockdown, she shared home fitness workouts, including running near her Dorset home and indoor exercises, to stay conditioned amid tournament cancellations.[41][42] Hall also enjoys travel as a key aspect of her professional life, appreciating the variety of courses and cultures encountered on tour, which she has described as a rewarding part of her career.[43] She actively uses social media, with over 91,000 Instagram followers, to share updates on her tournaments, training, and personal insights, fostering engagement with fans.[44] A vocal advocate for gender equality in golf, Hall has backed initiatives like the Aramco Pro Series, praising their role in elevating women's events and creating inclusive opportunities in the sport.[45] Her efforts extend to encouraging more female participation, drawing from her own experiences to promote accessibility and equity.[46]Competitive achievements

Throughout her professional career, Georgia Hall has secured seven tournament victories across various tours, including two on the LPGA Tour, two on the Ladies European Tour (LET), two on the Rose Ladies Series, one on the ALPG Tour, and one on the LET Access Series (LETAS). These wins highlight her versatility and success on both major stages and developmental circuits.

Major championships
Georgia Hall secured her sole major championship victory at the 2018 Women's British Open, held at Royal Lytham & St Annes Golf Club in England. Entering as the defending AIG Women's Open amateur champion from five years prior, Hall posted rounds of 65-70-69-67 to finish at 17-under-par 271, claiming a two-shot win over Thailand's Pornanong Phatlum. Her final-round 67 featured six birdies and just one bogey, marking her first LPGA Tour win and making her the first Englishwoman to claim the title since Karen Stupples in 2004. [19] [47] Throughout her career, Hall has demonstrated solid contention in the LPGA's five majors, achieving five top-10 finishes outside of her 2018 victory through the end of 2024. Her performances highlight consistency in high-stakes events, with particular strength at home-soil majors and European venues. Notable results include a T10 at the 2017 Evian Championship during her rookie professional season and T21 finishes at the KPMG Women's PGA Championship in both 2021 and 2022, her best showings in that event. [7] [3] [48] In 2025, Hall competed in all five majors, making the cut in four. She tied for 28th at The Chevron Championship (+1), missed the cut at the KPMG Women's PGA Championship (+10 after two rounds), tied for 34th at the U.S. Women's Open (+6), tied for 17th at The Evian Championship (-7), and tied for 19th at the AIG Women's Open (-1). These results reflect a steady but not dominant campaign amid a season impacted by form fluctuations. [24] [25] [49] Hall's best finishes across the majors underscore her competitive edge:| Major Championship | Best Finish | Year(s) |
|---|---|---|
| The Chevron Championship | T12 | 2023 |
| KPMG Women's PGA Championship | T21 | 2021, 2022 |

LPGA Tour career summary
Georgia Hall's LPGA Tour career began with limited appearances prior to gaining full membership status in 2018, following her strong performance on the Ladies European Tour.

Playing style and rankings
Technique and equipment
Georgia Hall employs a powerful yet controlled playing style, characterized by drives averaging 261 yards off the tee, which provide her with strong positioning on the course.[23] Her precise iron play stands out as a key strength, allowing her to attack pins effectively and rank highly in greens in regulation from various lies.[53] Hall particularly excels in links golf, where her ability to shape shots and manage firm, windy conditions—honed from her British roots—gives her an edge in major championships like the AIG Women's Open.[54] Under pressure, Hall's putting has proven clutch, as demonstrated by her conversion of multiple long birdie putts in the final round of her 2018 major victory at Royal Lytham & St Annes.[55] However, she has acknowledged occasional inconsistencies with the driver, evidenced by her drive accuracy of 65.23 percent, which she attributes to ongoing refinements in her technique.[23] Following her 2018 breakthrough, Hall has evolved her swing by collaborating with various instructors, incorporating elements to enhance consistency and power while addressing past challenges like putting yips that she overcame through targeted practice by 2023.[56][57] Hall's equipment setup reflects her endorsement deal with Callaway, which she joined after her early career with Srixon and Cleveland, providing her with a bag optimized for distance and control.[58] Her current driver is the Callaway Paradym Triple Diamond (9 degrees, lofted with a Fujikura Speeder Evolution shaft), paired with Callaway Apex Pro irons from 5-iron through pitching wedge for her approach shots.[58] She completes her setup with Titleist Vokey SM10 wedges, a Bettinardi Studio Stock 28 putter, and the Titleist Pro V1x golf ball, chosen for its spin and feel alignment with her stroke.[59][60] Influencing her endurance in majors, Hall maintains a fitness regimen centered on Pilates, which she uses during off-weeks to build core stability and flexibility, supporting her swing mechanics over long rounds.[40]World rankings
Georgia Hall entered the Women's World Golf Rankings upon turning professional in 2014, debuting at approximately No. 200.[28] Her career progression saw steady improvement through consistent performances on the Ladies European Tour and LPGA Tour, with her major victory at the 2018 Women's British Open serving as a key catalyst for advancement. This win propelled her to a career peak of No. 8 in November 2018.[61] The boost from the major, combined with multiple top-20 finishes in subsequent events, underscored her rise to elite status among global competitors. Hall's rankings fluctuated in later years, reflecting the competitive nature of professional golf. In 2023, she achieved a strong season with a peak of No. 8 and year-end No. 21. In 2025, Hall experienced an inconsistent season, with her ranking falling to No. 95 after the first eight tournaments, including five missed cuts. She improved to No. 46 following the DIO Implant LA Open in April, but as of November 2025, she is ranked No. 126.[28][62] This reflects ongoing challenges in her career trajectory. The table below outlines select year-end rankings, illustrating key milestones in her progression:| Year | Year-End Ranking |
|---|---|
| 2014 | No. 88 |
| 2018 | No. 8 |
| 2022 | No. 25 |
| 2023 | No. 21 |
