STAMFORD, Conn. – NBC Sports surrounds the upcoming 2024 Solheim Cup at Robert Trent Jones Golf Club in Gainesville, Va., with more than 30 hours of live event and studio coverage across NBC, GOLF Channel and Peacock, as Nelly Korda and Lilia Vu lead an American squad that aims to reclaim one of the most highly coveted trophies in women’s golf from the Europeans.
The Americans will look to win the Solheim Cup for the first time since 2017 when they defeated the Europeans by a score of 16.5 to 11.5 at Des Moines Golf and Country Club in Iowa, captained by Juli Inkster. Europe won the Cup in 2019 and 2021, followed by a 14-14 tie between the two sides last year in Spain, which led to Europe retaining the Cup.
Stacy Lewis returns as captain for the U.S. alongside assistant captains Morgan Pressel, Angela Stanford, Paula Creamer and Brittany Lincicome. Suzann Pettersen returns as captain alongside vice captains Laura Davies, Caroline Martens and Mel Reid, as well as playing vice captain Anna Nordqvist. The competition format features a combination of four-ball and foursomes sessions on Friday and Saturday, capped by 12 singles matches that feature all players on Sunday.
