Golf-Woad Set for Korda Showdown on Solheim Cup Debut
The 22-year-old rookie will partner Charley Hull as Europe open against the unbeaten American duo of Nelly Korda and Allisen Corpuz.
- On Friday at Bernardus Golf in the Netherlands, England's Lottie Woad makes her eagerly awaited Solheim Cup debut, teaming with Charley Hull against the unbeaten United States duo of Nelly Korda and Allisen Corpuz.
- Europe captain Anna Nordqvist paired Woad and Hull due to their collaborative play this year, while United States captain Angela Stanford called her decision to field Korda and Corpuz 'her easiest selection decision' on Thursday.
- Seeking to reclaim the trophy after losing to the United States in Virginia in 2024, Europe faces another tight competition; the last three editions in Europe saw no more than one point separate the rivals.
- The 22-year-old Woad approaches her debut with resilience, saying, 'So I think you've just got to have that mentality that any half point or point helps' when considering early deficits.
- Other opening foursomes pit Nanna Koerstz Madsen and Celine Boutier against Alison Lee and Lauren Coughlin, while Esther Henseleit and Leona Maguire face Andrea Lee and Lindy Duncan, and Maja Stark and Linn Grant meet Rose Zhang and Jennifer Kupcho.
