Team GB Paris 2024 chef de mission, Mark England said in quotes published by teamgb.com: “We are delighted to welcome Charley and Georgia to Team GB for the Paris 2024 Olympic Games.

"Whilst Georgia is set to make her Olympic Games debut in Paris this summer, she is no stranger to Team GB. Back in 2013, not only did she win two gold medals at the Australian Youth Olympic Festival, but she was also our flagbearer at the Opening Ceremony.

"It is also great to have Charley back in the team for a second Olympic Games.”

Team GB golf team leader, Nigel Edwards, added: “Charley and Georgia are incredibly experienced golfers and fantastic additions to the Team GB golf line up. I look forward to working with both of them in Paris, as Georgia makes her Olympic debut and Charlie returns following an impressive Games in Rio in 2016.”

Hall and Hull both have an impressive pedigree in the sport, with the former winning her first major at the Women’s British Open six years ago.

She has also represented Europe four times at the Solheim Cup - competing against the United States - and claimed two victories on both the LET and LPGA tours.

Hull also has a special relationship with the Solheim Cup after becoming the youngest player to take part in the competition at the age of 17.

She has three LET and two LPGA titles to her name, and has been part of the winning Solheim Cup team on four occasions from six appearances at the most prestigious team competition in women's golf.

All the golfers in the men’s and women’s competitions will take part in stroke play over 72 holes.
