Hoff maintained her 200-meter single Medley title when she won in the 2007 World Championships setting a new record in the championships with a time of 2:10.13. Hoff’s prior experience allowed her to utilize the “veteran” status to help the most experienced participant of the U.S. team, Natalie Coughlin prepare for the world-record setting speed in the 4×200-meter freestyle relay.

Hoff did not qualify for the 2009 World Aquatics Championships after an 8th- place finish in the 200-meter freestyle and a 6th-place finish in the 400-meter freestyle at the U.S. National Championships.

Hoff’s plan for 2009 had been to train at Loyola College in Chicago, where it was reported she would entrole in classes and volunteer as an assistant swim coach, similar to what Michael Phelps had done at the University of Michigan. However, ESPN reported that she would instead remain at NBAC and switch coaches to work with Bob Bowman, who had announced in April 2008 that he was leaving Michigan’s program after the Olympic trials. Bowman’s coaching style did not mesh well with Hoff, and her time working with him ended in May 2009, when she came close to quitting the sport.

In the 2005 World Aquatics Championships, Hoff recorded a world record in the time she ran at 2:10.41 for the female 200m individual Medley. Hoff was awarded two gold medals during the competition one for the 400-meter medley and one fourth for the freestyle 4×200 meters along with teammates Natalie Coughlin, Whitney Myers along with Kaitlin Sandeno.
