Solheim Cup: Saturday afternoon pairings, tee times, Team USA surging with momentum

The morning session of the 2024 Solheim Cup proved beneficial to Team USA, as they had to come back in a few matches to split the session.

Lauren Coughlin and Lexi Thompson got the first point of the day for Team USA as they took down Maja Stark and Georgia Hall 4 & 3. They never trailed in their match and did their jobs. Coughlin is now 3-0 in the event, which is unheard of from a rookie.

Nelly Korda and Allisen Corpuz won their match after being down two holes. They gave the Americans their eighth point.

Sarah Schmelzel and Lilia Vu lost to Anna Nordqvist and Celine Boutier 4 & 3 and were the only ones to give up a point to the Europeans.

Ally Ewing and Jennifer Kupcho fought hard and entered the 18th hole, tied with Esther Henseleit and Charley Hull.

The European duo won 1UP, but it was huge for the Americans when it looked like Team Europe could go 3-1 in this morning session.

Now, the afternoon Four-ball session will begin for the fourth session of the Solheim Cup. Who will play together? Let’s find out.
