STARS AND STRIPES ARE SET
➡️ Just hours after the final two automatic qualifiers for the U.S. Solheim Cup team — Andrea Lee and Alison Lee — were announced, American captain Angela Stanford finalized her 12-player roster with three captain's picks: Lindy Duncan, Megan Khang, and Rose Zhang.
At 35 years old, Duncan is the oldest member of the team and the oldest first-time participant since 39-year-old Nancy Scranton played in 2000. Khang will be playing in her fifth Solheim Cup with a 7-3-3 career record, while Zhang makes her third appearance, boasting a 4-2-1 record overall and a perfect 4-0-0 mark two years ago.
The remainder of the roster features automatic qualifiers Nelly Korda, Angel Yin, Jennifer Kupcho, Yealimi Noh, Auston Kim, Lauren Coughlin, and Allisen Corpuz.
