The Solheim Cup Is Here!

Of direction there were the regular lost clubs and luggage at Gleneagles, but the Stacy Lewis news turned into unexpected.

Stacy's lower back tweak led to Ally MacDonald replacing her as Juli Inkster's 2nd Captains Pick. Doesn't appearance to be an excessive amount of of a disruption, of route -- Ally has some crew enjoy from the 2014 Curtis Cup, in which she and Annie Park played a successful fourball collectively. (Ironically, Ally and Annie are in one of a kind pods in order that they likely won't play together this week.) But Ally become #9 on the points list besides, so she slightly ignored making the group on her personal.

The climate at Gleneagles is currently anticipated to be milder than typical, which should help degree the gambling discipline in opposition to Team Europe. I know numerous analysts say Team USA is the favorite, but I need to consider Laura Davies -- home discipline is a HUGE benefit and, coupled with the number of veterans at the Euro team, Team Europe really need to be the favorites.

This link takes you to a page at lpga.com with all the major info you'll need about the Solheim Cup, particularly the players on each team and the TV times here in the States. I'll just note that GC's coverage begins Friday morning at 3am ET and runs till 1:30pm ET. The Solheim Cup is always fun as well as competitive, and I'm looking forward to it.
