After losing the Cup to Europe 15-13, Stanford expressed that the greens were unexpectedly slow—at least compared to what she expected.

“Even when we showed up in July here, they were faster. And I don't think it had anything to do with the rain either,” Stanford said. “Now, saying that, it's my responsibility to get the team ready. This is the one thing I am kicking myself is that I just didn't keep pushing, you know, we got to figure out how to hit our putts a little bit harder, which is really difficult, to change the way you putt.”

She said her team wasn’t complaining. Jennifer Kupcho made a 91-foot putt on 17 and a 26-foot putt on 18 on Saturday to pull the competition all square heading into Sunday singles. But Stanford said she blamed herself for not being in her players’ ears more, reminding them that the greens were slower than they were used to and that they needed to get the ball to the hole. Though clearly feeling less than thrilled about the greens and disappointed her team isn’t taking the Cup home, Stanford leaves the Netherlands knowing that the overarching goal of the event was achieved.

“Anna [Nordqvist, Europe’s captain] and I agree, if we got to the end of the week and women's golf grew just a little bit more, then we did our jobs,” Stanford said.

The 22-year-old Englishwoman’s short par putt ended her match against Auston Kim to win 2 and 1, getting Europe to 14 points. With Carola Ciganda 3 up on Jennifer Kupcho with three to play, Europe was guaranteed to earn the half point it needed to win the Cup. Woad took her time over the putt, even though she didn’t know that if she made it, Europe would win. “I didn't know it was to win. I thought Carlota's match was for it to win,” Woad said afterward.

It was the first full point Woad scored at the 2026 Solheim Cup. “I was pretty disappointed,” Woad said, who’s ranked No. 7 in the world. “Felt like I was playing good golf and not getting the points and felt like I was kind of letting everyone down.” She finished the week 1-3-1. But after that clinching point, she’s not feeling like she let anyone down.

making seven birdies en route to defeating Europe’s Mimi Rhodes on Sunday at the Solheim Cup. Her 4-and-2 victory marks her first singles victory since 2021. She lost in 2023 to Carlota Ciganda and in 2024 to Charley Hull. The point pulled the competition to a tie at 10 points each. But behind Korda is a block of blue: Europe leads the four matches directly following her. It’s the Solheim Cup, so anything is possible. But as Korda heads out to cheer on her teammates, the advantage is toward Europe. Korda will go home with a 2-1-1 record from the Netherlands.

The 26-year-old Swede has holed out twice for eagle at Bernardus Golf in the Netherlands. The first came in morning foursomes, playing with Linn Grant, when Stark chipped in for eagle on the short par 4 eighth hole, en route to defeating Nelly Korda and Allisen Corpuz, 3 and 2 and giving the powerful American duo its first loss in six starts together.

Then in her afternoon fourball match, again paired with Grant as they faced Megan Khang and Lauren Coughlin, Stark holed out from the fairway on the first hole to go 1-up instantly.

Lottie Woad is playing in her first Solheim Cup while Charley Hull is competing for the eighth time. Ranked seventh and eighth in the Rolex Ranking respectively, Woad and Hull are the highest-ranked players on Europe’s squad. Nordqvist put the two together for each of the three first matches. They lost foursomes 4 and 3 to Nelly Korda and Allisen Corpuz in the first match, tied Yealimi Noh and Angel Yin in Friday’s fourball, and then lost, 6 and 5, to Lauren Coughlin and Alison Lee in Saturday’s foursomes. Still, Nordqvist is keeping the pairing together and has sent them out together again Saturday afternoon. Woad and Hull are playing Noh and Andrea Lee in Saturday afternoon fourball. “I'm really proud that they fought and I see no reason why not to play them today,” Nordqvist said on Saturday before the completion of the morning match.

The 22-year-old is playing for the U.S. at the Curtis Cup at Bel-Air, but the Sunday singles matches have fallen on the same day as Stanford University’s commencement. During her college career, Xu won two team NCAA titles with the Cardinal. She didn’t completely miss out on graduation, however. She received her diploma in her own ceremony at Bel-Air. Xu is playing Patience Rhodes in her singles match and is off to a quick lead.

Playing in the team event with Angel Yin, Inkster became the oldest player to make the cut at an LPGA event. She’s a week-and-a-half from turning 66, and broke Joanne Carner’s record of making a cut when she was 64 in 2004. But Inkster didn’t just make the cut. She and Yin finished with a 64 on Sunday to tie for 12th place.

“We had an amazing time out there. Angel played amazing today,” Inkster said on Sunday. “I was just glad to be by her side and be her partner.”

Inkster said she does not plan to play in LPGA events in the near future.
