2024 Solheim Cup Saturday morning foursomes scores as U.S. battles Europe

The U.S. threatened to run away with it. The Euros said: “Not so fast.”

After bolting out to a 6-2 lead at the 2024 Solheim Cup, the European squad came out firing in Saturday morning foursomes, jumping out to big early leads, none moreso than the 6-and-4 start for the Anna Nordqvist/Celine Boutier duo over Lilia Vu/Sarah Schmelzel.

But the first point on the board came from the Lexi Thompson/Lauren Coughlin pairing, who got clutch putting from Coughlin once again.

Minutes later, the Nordqvist/Boutier duo did close out their match, putting another point on the board for the Euros.
