Georgia Hall and Charley Hull will represent Team GB in women's golf at the 2024 Paris Olympics.

Georgia Hall and Charley Hull will represent Team GB in women’s golf at the 2024 Paris Olympics.

Matt Fitzpatrick and Tommy Fleetwood represented Team GB in the men’s Olympic golf last week, with the latter securing a silver medal after finishing a shot behind an unstoppable Scottie Scheffler.

It’s the women’s turn this week, and 60 golfers will battle it out over four rounds at Le Golf National. You can see the full field for women’s golf at the 2024 Paris Olympics here, but let’s look in detail at the Brits hoping to bring home a medal for Team GB.

Team GB for women’s golf at the Paris 2024 Olympics

Charley Hull

Always the bridesmaid? The 28-year-old has six runner-up finishes since June 2023, more than any other player – male or female – on the top tours.

She refuses to rein in her ultra-aggressive approach, which is what makes her so exciting to watch.

She withdrew after six holes of the Aramco Team Series London in early July, blaming “ongoing pain in my right shoulder following a nasty fall”.

An opening-round 79 in her only start since, the Amundi Evian Championship, led to a missed cut, although a second-round 69 proved she’s not hampered by injury now.

Hull has a history of delivering on the toughest courses, which bodes well at Le Golf National.

Georgia Hall

A recent upturn in form has seen the 28-year-old record three top-20s in her last four starts, including a T3 at the Aramco Team Series London.

She hasn’t recorded a top-10 in a major for more than two years, though, which isn’t a good sign on a course as tough as Le Golf National. But the 2018 Women’s British Open winner has shown that she can deliver on the biggest stage thanks to that victory at Royal Lytham & St Annes.
