Known for an aggressive baseline game, McHale was recognized by The New York Times for her "booming" groundstrokes and fast footwork.

In September 2016, McHale won her first and only career WTA singles title at the Japan Women's Open.

After losing in the first round of qualifying for the 2022 US Open, she announced her retirement from professional tennis.
