Angel Yin prepares for Solheim Cup as Lilia Vu joins U.S. team

Summary

U.S. Solheim Cup captain Angela Stanford has announced that Angel Yin is expected to compete at Bernardus Golf. The status of Yin comes despite her limited activity since June due to ongoing stomach issues. To prepare for any potential late roster changes, former world No. 1 Lilia Vu has arrived on-site in Cromvoirt, Netherlands, to serve as an alternate. The team is managing the health status of participants ahead of the event. Stanford continues to coordinate contingency plans to ensure a full roster remains available for the Americans. The presence of Vu provides immediate insurance should Yin be unable to participate in the upcoming matches.
