Hallberg made his Grand Slam debut in 1962 at the French Open and after receiving a bye in the first round, lost in the second round to Roy Emerson. He also played at the 1962, 1963 and 1964 US Opens, losing in the first round on each occasion.[3]

Hallberg's one tournament victory was at the 1962 Kassel Open in Germany when he beat the Hungarian player, Istvan Sikorski, 6–2, 6–1 in the final.[4]
