Solheim Cup 2024: USA Eyes Comeback Victory

The 2024 Solheim Cup, set to be held at the Robert Trent Jones Golf Club in Virginia, promises intense competition as Europe aims for a fourth consecutive victory against the United States. European captain Suzann Pettersen embraces the underdog role, while the US team, led by Stacy Lewis, is bolstered by the experience of Lexi Thompson and the support of a home crowd. The event is expected to draw 150,000 spectators and generate significant economic impact for Northern Virginia. The drama and close contests characteristic of the Solheim Cup add to its appeal, contrasting with the often one-sided Ryder Cup. Meanwhile, the US team recently secured a record-breaking victory in the 2024 Ping Junior Solheim Cup, defeating Europe 18.5-5.5.
