Dame Laura Davies anticipates close Solheim Cup at Bernardus Golf Club

The Solheim Cup arrives at Bernardus Golf Club near Den Bosch in the Netherlands this week for the 2026 edition of the women's team golf competition. Team USA currently holds the cup following a victory in Virginia in 2024, but the visiting side faces a historical trend of losses on European soil. Dame Laura Davies suggests that Charley Hull serves as a central figure for the European effort, noting that the English golfer brings a quiet focus similar to her own approach. Europe enters the event with a squad featuring four first-time participants and a new captain in Anna Nordqvist, who recently announced her retirement from competitive play. The American side enters the tournament as narrow favorites under the leadership of Angela Stanford, with world number one Nelly Korda heading the visiting team roster.
