Anna Hall's comeback in the 2025 season will be seen after her appearance at the 2024 Paris Games, where she missed the podium finish after falling short of 92 points. She scored a total of 6615 points to settle in fifth place in Paris.

However, her appearance at the Games was nothing less than an achievement, considering the heptathlete went through multiple setbacks. She spoke about her appearance at the French capital in an interview with Olympics.com.

"I've wanted this for so long and my Olympic journey has been really, really hard," said Hall. "2021 was absolutely devastating. It's just been a lot of adversity and a lot of doubt. And so, just the relief... Llike, we finally made it. I'm just really thankful."

Anna Hall endured a broken foot at the 2021 U.S. Olympic Trials that ended her Tokyo Olympic quest. She had to undergo knee surgery in January 2024 ahead of the Paris Games.
