He has been referred to as Australia’s greatest ever wheelchair tennis player.[2] BiographyBorn in Sydney, Australia, Hall was raised in the New South Wales coastal town of Budgewoi, attending Budgewoi Public School and Northlakes High School.[3] On 11 October 1986, at the age of 16, Hall lost his legs after being hit by a car. After a long period of rehabilitation, Hall began working as a clerk at the local police station. It was around this time that Hall was looking through the local paper and saw a picture of a Terry Mason in a wheelchair playing tennis.[4] Hall had played tennis growing up and at the age of 13 and 14 had been Club Champion at his local tennis club. Inspired, Hall began to play and entered his first wheelchair tennis competition, the 'Albury-Wodonga Classic', in 1988. {{Quote box|title = Hall on importance of tennis in his life |quote = Tennis was giving me comfort, something to look forward to. It felt like a long lost friend who had come back to me. It began to open doors I never knew existed, sending me places I'd never been and giving me chances to meet people I'd never had met. It was creating structure and purpose when I needed it most.{{citation needed|date=October 2015}} |quoted = 1 |width = 50% |qalign = right |align = right }} This led to him competing in his first Australian Open in February 1989. Playing in the C division, Hall won. The following year, Hall participated in his first international competition and turned professional in 1993. 1995 saw Hall relocate to the United States. The year culminated with Hall winning the US Open Singles title and being ranked number one in the world.[4] Tennis careerIn his career, Hall won all of the major world titles and was ranked as the world number one player for six years.
