What are the current Solheim Cup standings for Team USA and the Team Europe?
The 2024 Solheim Cup will be the 19th edition of the Solheim Cup and will be held 13-15 September at the Robert Trent Jones Golf Club in Virginia.
The Solheim Cup is a biennial, transatlantic team match-play golf competition features the 12 best European players from the Ladies European Tour (LET) and the 12 best U.S. players from the Ladies Professional Golf Association (LPGA) Tour.
Held every two years, the event has grown into the most highly coveted trophy in women’s professional golf team competition; some of the most memorable moments in the sport have happened during past Solheim Cups and berths on the European and U.S. teams are highly sought-after by players from both organisations. The Solheim Cup is named in honour of Karsten and Louise Solheim, the founders of Karsten Manufacturing Corporation, which makes PING golf equipment.
The first Solheim Cup was staged in 1990, with the latest 2021 Solheim Cup having taken place on September 4-6, at Inverness Club in Toledo, Ohio. Team Europe secured a second victory on US soil as they clinched a 15-13 win over Team USA.
The last outing (2023) saw Europe retaining the Solheim Cup after tying 14-14 with the Americans at Finca Cortesin in Andalucia, Spain and 2024 will be the first edition of the competition since moving to even years.
