2019 Ping Junior Solheim Cup European Handbook 2019 PING JUNIOR SOLHEIM CUP EUROPEAN HANDBOOK 10TH – 11TH SEPTEMBER 2019 GLENEAGLES, SCOTLAND WWW.SOLHEIMCUP2019.COM [email protected] PINGJUNIORSOLHEIMCUPTEAMEUROPE INTRODUCTION TO THE EVENT The 2019 Solheim Cup and PING Junior Solheim Cup will take place at Gleneagles in Perthshire, Scotland the week of 9th September. The aim of the competition is to give junior golfers from both sides of the Atlantic the opportunity to gain international match play experience as well as the chance to meet, learn and be inspired by the professional players playing in The Solheim Cup. It will be the third time both The Solheim Cup and the PING Junior Solheim Cup are incorporated within The Solheim Cup week at the same venue which significantly enhances the profile of the junior event. This follows the success of the last two matches at Golf Club St. Leon-Rot, Germany, in 2015 and Des Moines Golf & Country Club in Iowa, USA, in 2017 where the matches were combined to great effect. In 2019, the junior tournament will move in closer proximity to the senior version and will be played on the Tuesday 10th September and Wednesday 11th September. This date adjustment ensures the PING Junior Solheim Cup will get the exposure and profile it deserves as it is positioned as an important part of a week where the hosts, VisitScotland, aim to make this the most family-orientated Solheim Cup to date. The aim of The 2019 Solheim Cup is to not only highlight the stunning assets of Scotland, the Home of Golf, but also build on the legacy of the successful 2014 Ryder Cup at Gleneagles. It will underline that Scotland is the perfect stage for major golf events as it seeks to help inspire a new generation of children to take up the game invented in their home country. Mickey Walker OBE, the first Captain of the European Solheim Cup team from 1990 to 1996, will Captain the European team as the top 12 European junior amateurs take on their U.S. counterparts over the two days.

  • 2023 Solheim Cup Advanced Concepts
    2023 SOLHEIM CUP ADVANCED CONCEPTS The Solheim Cup is the biggest international competition in women’s golf and one of the most important events in women’s sport around the world. Although it is a younger competition than the Ryder Cup, its counterpart in men’s golf, the Solheim Cup ranks high on the international schedule and is a must-have event both for fans and media outlets. This biennial tournament confronts teams representing Europe and the United States in a three-day highly contested competition in a festive and very intense atmosphere. Finca Cortesin (Costa del Sol, Andalusia), a world- renowned championship course that held three Volvo World Match Play Championships and is listed regularly among the best Iberian clubs, will be the venue of the event that will take place from September 18-24. With three wins in the last five events, including a memorable last-minute triumph at Gleneagles in 2019, the European side have managed to reverse the trend, beating consistently the powerful American team. solheimcup2023.eu Up to now, seven Spanish golfers have played in the European team. In recent years, marked by the dominance of the European team, Azahara Muñoz (a Costa del Sol golfer) Carlota Ciganda and Beatriz Recari played a decisive role. For the first time ever, Spain will host the Solheim Cup in 2023, adding to a long list of top sporting events held in our country (1982 FIFA World Cup, 1986 FIBA World Cup, 1992 Olympic Games, 1997 Ryder Cup, 2007 and 2010 America Cup, and so on). Once again, Spain, Andalucía and the Costa del Sol will show the world their organizational capacity and their suitability for hosting prime international competitions.

Comme en Ryder Cup chez les hommes, 12 américaines vont se mesurer à 12 européennes dans le même format (depuis 2002) : Trois jours en match-play. Les deux premiers jours, il y a quatre foursomes et quatre quatre-balles (un le matin et un l’après-midi). Le dimanche, toutes les joueuses de chaque équipe s’affrontent en matchs individuels. Histoire de la Solheim Cup Créée en 1990 par Karsten et Louise Solheim, créateur de la marque Ping. La première édition de la Solheim Cup a eu lieu en Floride au Lake Nona Golf & Country Club. Les Américaines avaient gagné 11,5 à 4,5. Elles totalisent actuellement dix victoires contre cinq pour l’Europe. Une Française dans l’équipe Cocorico !

  • Awards Pile up for Kinhult's Sneaky Good Freshman Season by Julie Williams Amateurgolf.Com May 19, 2019
    Awards Pile Up For Kinhult's Sneaky Good Freshman Season By Julie Williams Amateurgolf.com May 19, 2019 FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. – Frida Kinhult is a lurker, literally and figuratively. Nothing brings her greater delight than sneaking up on a teammate, a coach or a family member and popping out from behind a corner for a good scare. She always remembers to keep her iPhone camera on so she can show you exactly how high you jumped. The symbolism is obvious here, as Kinhult, a Florida State freshman, sits eight shots off the lead after two rounds at the NCAA Women’s Championship. She followed up an opening 4-over 77 at Blessings Golf Club with an even-par 73. It’s good but not great, considering the difficulty of this Blessings layout. “A small mistake is a big mistake on this course,” Kinhult said after the second round. This week aside, Kinhult’s freshman season is a body of work that sometimes gets overlooked. In nine starts so far this season, Kinhult’s worst finish was a 13th at NCAA Regionals. She fired a final-round 68 to claw that high. Kinhult stacks up well against the giants. She is 5-0 against reigning national champion Jennifer Kupcho, a Wake Forest senior who won the Augusta National Women’s Amateur last month. Kinhult was playing the ANA Inspiration, an LPGA major, on a sponsor exemption that week. Kupcho and Kinhult were named co-ACC Players of the Year earlier this month. Kinhult was also the ACC’s top freshman. She’s only the fifth player to sweep those awards, and the other four have been from Duke.
