Angela Stanford has announced her captain's picks for the United States Solheim Cup team. The final event within the Qualification Period was the CPKC Women's Open, which determined the selection for Monday's announcement. Lindy Duncan, Megan Khang, and Rose Zhang are set to join Stanford's United States group.
Duncan, at 35 years old, is the oldest player to make her debut in the Solheim Cup since Nancy Scranton did so in 2000 at the age of 39. Khang and Zhang, both veteran Solheim Cup participants, are well-acquainted with the event's dynamics.
The automatic qualifiers for the United States team have already been determined. This includes Nelly Korda, Angel Yin, Jennifer Kupcho, Yealimi Noh, Auston Kim, Lauren Coughlin, Allisen Corpuz, Andrea Lee, Alison Lee, and the rankings from the Rolex Women’s World Golf contribute to these selections.
The United States team will soon head to the Netherlands for the Solheim Cup, aiming to reclaim the title for their part of the world.
