Professional career

O'Toole turned professional in 2009, and joined the Futures Tour on February 1, 2009. She competed in eight events on ended the season 80th on the Futures Tour money list. O'Toole participated in the LPGA Final Qualifying Tournament ("Q-School") in December in an attempt to earn membership on the LPGA Tour for 2010, but finished 73rd and failed to qualify.[http://www.lpga.com/content/2009QualifierFinalPlayerSummary.pdf LPGA.com] - Final Qualifying Tournament - December 27, 2009

She returned to the Futures Tour in 2010, competed in 16 events, won twice, and finished 7th on the official season-ending money list. She also played in her first LPGA tournament in August 2010 when she received a sponsor's exemption to the CN Canadian Women's Open in Winnipeg, but missed the cut.LPGA.com, [http://www.lpga.com/content_1.aspx?mid=2&pid=25532 2010 CN Canadian Open Results] August 29, 2010. Retrieved August 22, 2011. Her top-10 finish on the Futures tour money list in 2010 earned her conditional status on the LPGA Tour for 2011. She returned to the LPGA Final Qualifying Tournament in December in an attempt to improve her status but was unsuccessful with a 95th-place finish.[http://www.lpga.com/content/2010LPGAQSchoolFinalResults.pdf LPGA.com] {{webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110304164056/http://www.lpga.com/content/2010LPGAQSchoolFinalResults.pdf |date=2011-03-04 }} - Final Qualifying Tournament - December 12, 2010

She started 2011 playing on the Futures Tour and in the events on the LPGA Tour that her relatively low priority status qualified her for. After a 9th-place finish at the U.S. Women's Open in Colorado Springs, her priority status improved, which gave her entry into more tournaments. After O'Toole finished tied for fifth at the Safeway Classic on August 21, U.S. Solheim team captain Rosie Jones named her one of two captain's picks for the 2011 Solheim Cup team.

She won her first LPGA Tour event on August 15, 2021, at the Trust Golf Women's Scottish Open with a 271 (−17), by three strokes over both Lydia Ko and Atthaya Thitikul. It was her 11th season on tour and her 228th LPGA Tour start.
