Georgia Kelly Hall MBE (born 12 April 1996) is an English professional golfer. She plays on the Ladies European Tour,[1] and the LPGA Tour. In 2018 she won the Women's British Open at Royal Lytham; it was her first victory in a major championship.

Amateur career

[edit]

Hall began her golfing career at Canford Magna Golf Club. She won two gold medals at the 2013 Australian Youth Olympic Festival. She had a successful amateur career winning the 2013 British Ladies Amateur Golf Championship.[citation needed]

Professional career

[edit]

Turning professional in July 2014, Hall had an early success, winning the Open Generali de Strasbourg on the LET Access Series. In early 2016, she won the Oates Victorian Open on the ALPG Tour.

In 2017, Hall won the Ladies European Tour Order of Merit after recording seven top 10 finishes during the season, including a tie for third place at the Women's British Open and a tie for tenth place at the Evian Championship.[2]

Hall made her debut for the European team in the 2017 Solheim Cup. Europe were defeated 16.5‍–‍11.5 by USA at the Des Moines Golf and Country Club, Iowa. Hall finished the event with a 2‍–‍3‍–‍0 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".[3][4]

Hall earned her 2018 LPGA Tour card through qualifying school.[5] In August 2018, she won her first major championship at the 2018 Women's British Open, finishing two strokes ahead of Pornanong Phatlum.[6] She ended the season by winning the Ladies European Tour Order of Merit for the second time, becoming the youngest player to defend the title.[7]

At 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. Hall won three matches partnering Céline Boutier and then beat Lexi Thompson 2 and 1 in the final day singles.[8][9]

In 2020, while the main tours were suspended due to the COVID-19 pandemic, Hall won two tournaments on the Rose Ladies Series and finished second in the overall standings behind Charley Hull.[10] The LPGA Tour returned at the end of July, and in September she won for the second time on the tour, and the first time in the United States, at the Cambia Portland Classic, where she defeated Ashleigh Buhai in a sudden-death playoff.[11]

Hall 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.[12]

Hall was part of the European team that triumphed 15‍–‍13 over USA in the 2021 Solheim Cup at the Inverness Club, Toledo, Ohio. Hall 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. [13][14]

Hall won the 2022 Aramco Saudi Ladies International by five strokes, to win her second Ladies European Tour competition.[15]

At the 2023 Solheim Cup at Finca Cortesin in Casares, Andalusia, Hall finished with a 1‍–‍2‍–‍1 record, including a tie with Andrea Lee in the singles as Europe and USA finished tied on 14 points. The result meant that Europe retained the trophy.[16][17]

Hall was selected by Great Britain for the 2024 Summer Olympics in Paris.[18] Hall finished T36th on five over par, fifteen strokes behind gold medalist Lydia Ko.[19]

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. 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. Hall finished the tournament with a 2‍–‍2‍–‍0 record.[20][21]

Personal life

[edit]

Hall's father, Wayne, acted as caddie for her during the 2018 Women's British Open.[22] She was born two days before Nick Faldo pulled off one of the greatest sporting comebacks in history to win his third Masters title at Augusta National Golf Club in Augusta, Georgia. Faldo's famous win in Georgia inspired her name.[22]

Hall was appointed Member of the Order of the British Empire (MBE) in the 2019 Birthday Honours for services to golf.[23]
