Message: [QUOTE="Blakeon18, post: 4748257, member: 35"] USA sweeps the alternate shot....4-0. Euros make good comeback with 3-1 in the four ball competition. Day one end with USA up 5-3. Same format Saturday..alternate shot then four ball. 6 out of 8 matches today went to #18...interesting close competition. 2 shots stood out in the PM. Both Americans hit it very close on a back nine par 3. Pederson of Europe then makes a hole in one...thereby winning the hole...a key event in that match. Only second hole in one in Solheim Cup ever. Lexi Thomson and partner need a birdie on par 5 number 18 to tie their match and earn 1/2 point. Lexi is on fringe in 2....promptly hits one SERIOUS shank [on a chip shot] and ball flies over the green. Almost made her following shot for a birdie but missed by inches so Europe got the full point. BTW Cohenzone: Megan went 1-0-1 today...played well....partnered with upcoming star Rose Zhang in the four ball...looked good together. Megan is one of my favorites: a New Englander for one....and saw her play in person when she won the Ct. Open two years in a row when she was around 14-15 year old. Now a very young vet...steady player... makes good money every year and broke thru with her first win earlier this season. At times she was pretty fiery with Rose in their match...in a good way...pumping her up. [/QUOTE]
