Opal S. Trout Hill (June 2, 1892 – June 23, 1981) was an American professional golfer. She won the Women's Western Open in 1935 and 1936. Opal Trout was born in Newport, Nebraska but was raised in Kansas City, Missouri. She married Oscar S. Hill, an attorney. As she was suffering from a lingering kidney infection, her doctor recommended mild exercise and she took up golf at the age of 31. She won numerous amateur tournaments. Hill became a golf professional in 1938, and was one of the 13 founders of the Ladies Professional Golf Association in 1950. Hill died in Kansas City, Missouri at the age of 89.
