HALL HOPING TO BRING MAGIC BACK

HALL HOPING TO BRING MAGIC BACK


England's Lisa Hall is hoping for more magic for her defence of the ANZ Masters - opening event of the Ladies European Tour season - at Royal Pines in Australia on Thursday.

But the 41-year-old from Stoke-on-Trent has low expectations, not having played a tournament since mid-December.

"This week a year ago was magical almost, how it ended up," said Hall.

"But last year we played the (Australian) Open the week before - and this year I haven't played since Dubai, so I've got no idea."

Taiwan's Yani Tseng and South Korean Jiyai Shin, second and fifth in the world, are the two top-ranked players in the field - while Karrie Webb is going for her seventh victory in the event.
