College career

Hall accepted an athletic scholarship to attend the University of Florida in Gainesville, Florida, United States, where she played for coach Mimi Ryan's Florida Gators women's golf team from 1987 to 1990. Following the 1990 season, she was recognized as the Southeastern Conference (SEC) Golfer of the Year, and was a first-team All-SEC selection and a second-team All-American. Hall graduated from the University of Florida with a bachelor's degree in sociology in 1990.

Professional career

Hall turned professional on 8 January 1991, and joined the Ladies European Tour (LET) that year. In 1995 she won the Indonesia Open and topped the Kosaido Asian Circuit Order of Merit. She won her first LET title at the 1996 Women's Welsh Open and played for Europe in the Solheim Cup that year and for a second time in 1998. In 1997 she joined the United States-based LPGA Tour. She finished in the top ten in three of the four majors in her rookie season and was named Rookie of the Year. However, soon after that, she began to struggle and by 2005 had ceased playing tournament golf. In 2006, she made a comeback on the LET, and won the Northern Ireland Ladies Open in 2007. In 2008, she shot a final round 66 to win the ANZ Ladies Masters.

She married English-born professional golfer Martin Hall in 1998.
