Who is Georgia Hall?

Georgia Hall is a major champion, Solheim Cup winner and a victor on both the Ladies European Tour and LPGA Tour.

Hall was born in the south of England in 1996, and starting playing the game at a young age. Her amateur career saw her win two Gold Medals at the Australian Youth Olympic Festival. Just a year later, and in one of her first appearances as a professional, Hall secured her maiden professional title. She was the victor at the Open Generali de Strasbourg.

The Englishwoman has gone on to win on both the Ladies European Tour and the LPGA Tour over the last few years. In 2018, Hall became the first Englishwoman to win a major championship for 14 years. She was victorious on home soil at the AIG Women’s Open, joining Karen Stupples as the only two English major champions in the 21st Century.

Hall has also become an integral part of Team Europe at the Solheim Cup in recent years, with the 2023 edition of the bi-ennial competition being the fourth of her career. She was perfect across her four matches in the 2019 edition, striking up a partnership with Celine Boutier, in which the pair went 3-0-0.
