Maja Stark picks up Lindy Duncan’s coin on the 17th green. The concession seals a fine win for the late-blooming rookie against one of Europe’s grittiest competitors. Stark doesn’t care. She just wants to race off and join the party with her team-mates. They all get in a huddle and bounce around singing her song. All together now: ♫ Maja Stark, doo doo doo doo doo doooo, doo doo doo doo doo doooo, doo doo doo doo doo doooo, MA-JA STARK! ♪♫

What a difference a day makes. Yesterday evening, Jennifer Kupcho drained putts of 92 feet and 30 feet on 17 and 18. Now she underhits a putt from the swale to the right of 16, the ball only just getting to the green. Carlota Ciganda nearly drains her eagle putt, but she doesn’t need to make the one coming back, because Kupcho’s long birdie effort races past the hole, and the American concedes. Europe have officially won the 2026 Solheim Cup!

Lottie Woad’s win sparks huge celebrations on the 17th green! Anna Nordqvist comes over to give the hero of the hour a huge hug, before Sky have a word with the brilliant 22-year-old from Farnham in Surrey! “I didn’t know it was to win … I thought Carlota’s match was to win … I was playing good golf but not getting the points … I felt I was kinda letting everyone down … then the captain spoke to me … said I was third on birdies … I had to trust that … that’s golf sometimes and I get the winning putt!”

Auston Kim’s putt shaves the left-hand edge of the cup. She hangs her head. She knows the jig is up, though she makes Lottie Woad tap in to seal the deal. With Carlota Ciganda assured of half a point, Woad has effectively won the Solheim Cup for Europe!

Both Alison Lee and Esther Henseleit find the 18th in regulation. But Henseleit is much further out, and she can’t repeat her heroics on the 72nd at the British Open. The putt stops short, and she concedes the match. And so completes the biggest comeback in Solheim Cup singles history. Hearts break for poor Henseleit, who has brought so much to this edition, only to falter over the closing stretch. But hats off to Lee, who looked down and out before finding the hero within: she was five under through the last 11 holes!

It was a classic matchplay double whammy. An all-timer. Yesterday evening in the gloaming, with Europe looking likely to take a 9-7 lead into the Sunday singles, Jennifer Kupcho tramlined a 90-footer on 17 before guiding in a 30-footer on the last to pull the rug spectacularly, skilfully, nervelessly, dramatically from under the feet of the astonished hosts and level the scores at 8-8. A genuine Where Were You When …? event, 120 feet’s worth of brilliance you’ll see again and again and again and again for ever more. And you can double that should the USA win and/or retain the trophy this afternoon! Take it to the bank. Jennifer Kupcho: instant Solheim Cup legend.

Can Europe recover from that late, late, great bodyblow? They’ve got 12 chances to do so. They need six-and-a-half more points to regain the Solheim Cup; the USA require a mere six to retain. If the first two days are anything to go by – and Carlota Ciganda’s Seve-and-Spieth-infused heroics on Friday now seem a sepia-tinged dot in the dim and distant past in this post-Kupcho multicoloured world – this is going to be very tense, very dramatic … and an awful lot of fun. It’s on!

FINAL SCORE: Europe 15-13 USA
The entire European team and their caddies advance up the 18th fairway linked arm in arm. Celine Boutier nearly drains a monster across the green for a birdie and that half she’d quite like … but it doesn’t drop. A wry smile as she concedes the hole to Rose Zhang … then wanders off to celebrate with her pals!
Rose Zhang beats Celine Boutier 2UP
There are still Is to dot and Ts to cross. Celine Boutier and Rose Zhang halve the 17th, so they’ll head up the last.
The winning captain Anna Nordqvist – who heads into retirement as a Solheim Cup winning captain – speaks to Sky Sports. “This feels so good … so much hard work … all the background team … we had a really good vibe all week … everyone has been a really good team-mate … we talked a lot about fast starts … I’m really proud for them starting strong and finishing strong … it’s been such a long road … I’ve been living my dream … it doesn’t feel like I’ve worked a day in my life … what makes the Solheim Cup special is you get to share it with others … thank you everyone!”
There’s just one match left out on the course now. Rose Zhang is 1UP on Celine Boutier, having just won the 16th. Boutier will be desperate to win one of the last two holes, as she’s the only player on the European team not to have contributed any points. I’m pretty sure her team-mates will say she was an integral part of a collective effort nonetheless. They’ll have her back.
Europe 15-12 USA
Maja Stark picks up Lindy Duncan’s coin on the 17th green. The concession seals a fine win for the late-blooming rookie against one of Europe’s grittiest competitors. Stark doesn’t care. She just wants to race off and join the party with her team-mates. They all get in a huddle and bounce around singing her song. All together now: ♫ Maja Stark, doo doo doo doo doo doooo, doo doo doo doo doo doooo, doo doo doo doo doo doooo, MA-JA STARK! ♪♫

Europe 15-11 USA: Europe win the Solheim Cup!
What a difference a day makes. Yesterday evening, Jennifer Kupcho drained putts of 92 feet and 30 feet on 17 and 18. Now she underhits a putt from the swale to the right of 16, the ball only just getting to the green. Carlota Ciganda nearly drains her eagle putt, but she doesn’t need to make the one coming back, because Kupcho’s long birdie effort races past the hole, and the American concedes. Europe have officially won the 2026 Solheim Cup!

… but Europe haven’t officially won, because Carlota Ciganda has to complete her match to register the half-point she’s certain of posting. She finds the heart of 16 in two, while her opponent Jennifer Kupcho misses to the right. No ear cupping today from Kupcho. It’s not been the smartest of moves by either Kupcho or Auston Kim in retrospect … but then if you can’t celebrate wildly after making 122-feet’s worth of putts, when can you? So having said all of the above: the celebration police can do one. Kupcho will always have Saturday night.
Europe win the Solheim Cup (effectively, if not officially)!
Lottie Woad’s win sparks huge celebrations on the 17th green! Anna Nordqvist comes over to give the hero of the hour a huge hug, before Sky have a word with the brilliant 22-year-old from Farnham in Surrey! “I didn’t know it was to win … I thought Carlota’s match was to win … I was playing good golf but not getting the points … I felt I was kinda letting everyone down … then the captain spoke to me … said I was third on birdies … I had to trust that … that’s golf sometimes and I get the winning putt!”
Europe 14-10 USA
Auston Kim’s putt shaves the left-hand edge of the cup. She hangs her head. She knows the jig is up, though she makes Lottie Woad tap in to seal the deal. With Carlota Ciganda assured of half a point, Woad has effectively won the Solheim Cup for Europe!

Lauren Coughlin with a huge display of grit on 16, getting up and down to scramble par having found the drink. That secures a half, and puts her dormie two. Meanwhile up on 17, Lottie Woad and Auston Kim both find the green in regulation. Woad has a look at birdie from 25 feet, but it’s always dying to the right. Kim will have a chance to extend if she makes her birdie effort from 15 feet or so. She’ll have got a read off Woad too. But she needs to make it, because if not, the cup is effectively Europe’s (although not officially, because matches have to be completed before counting).

Jennifer Kupcho doesn’t put a good stroke on her birdie putt. The ball jumps a little as it rolls wide right. That gives Carlota Ciganda the chance to put this match to bed … but her putt is always staying up on the left. The hole halved, and Ciganda is dormie three. Europe are now guaranteed to reach 14 points, which means they can’t lose the 2026 Solheim Cup … but they need to get to 14-and-a-half, because the USA as holders have the tie.

Lauren Coughlin’s second into 16 finds the drink. So nothing’s signed and sealed just yet. Leona Maguire whistles her second long and right of the green. Much will depend on her lie. Meanwhile both Carlota Ciganda and Jennifer Kupcho are on the 15th green, with similar looks at birdie. Kupcho perhaps a bit further out, but as we saw last night on 17 and 18, distance is not exactly an issue for her.
Auston Kim bundles her chip up to 12 feet, but she’s outside Lottie Woad … and can’t make the par putt. That leaves Woad with two putts to win the hole from ten feet … and she only needs one. She tickles it in, and goes dormie two. Europe are guaranteed half a point now, so if Carlota Ciganda can hold onto her lead over Jennifer Kupcho … and having just halved 14, she’s 3UP with four to play … the Solheim Cup will be heading back to Europe! But last night’s shenanigans proved there’s many a slip twixt cup and lip …

Meanwhile back on the par-three 15th, two matches come through in short order, Lauren Coughlan and Lindy Duncan missing putts to win the hole, and in Duncan’s case her match. Duncan now dormie three over Maja Stark.

Europe 13-10 USA
Yealimi Noh’s 15-foot birdie putt is always staying up on the high side. That opens the door for Julia Lopez Ramirez to win the match with her four-foot birdie putt … and she walks through it with a firm, confident roll! Cue wild celebrations, the rookie seeing off one of the US’s most accomplished performers.

Carlota Ciganda walks in a 35-footer on 13 to get back to 3UP against Jennifer Kupcho, who was halfway through her comeback. Big momentum shift! Maja Stark makes a 20-footer on 14 to keep her slim hopes alive against Lindy Duncan. And on 16, Yealimi Noh, having laid up, doesn’t get particularly close with her wedge … and then Julia Lopez Ramirez races her eagle putt six past! Both of these players have really suffered with the old greenside nerves in the last 30 minutes or so.
Lottie Woad gives her birdie putt an aggressive run, and with her ball ending up three feet past, it’s not conceded. Woad takes her time and eventually tickles it in for the half. She remains 1UP. Meanwhile Leona Maguire isn’t giving up. Two putts for the hole on 14, and she takes them carefully, reducing Lauren Coughlin’s lead to two holes. And Julia Lopez Ramierz fires a fairway wood over the creek at 16 and off the bank to the right of the green, using its contours to gather the ball back onto the putting surface. She’ll have a look at eagle from about 20 feet.

Auston Kim’s tee shot at the par-three 15th lands just short of the green. Lottie Woad goes over the flag. They’re similar distances away, but Kim will go first. Her putt never looks like dropping and rolls a couple of feet past, but that should be enough for the par. Over to Woad …
Auston Kim continues her comeback against Lottie Woad! She makes a 25-footer on 14 for her third birdie in a row … and that’s her third hole in a row! Just the one-hole advantage for Woad now. Kim walks off the green cupping her ear, mouthing “I can’t hear you!” at the gallery. Gloriously provocative. Great fun. What moxie! Meanwhile Yealimi Noh misses a short one on 15 to gift a precious hole to Julia Lopez Ramirez. This could still go either way!

A measure of how loudly the nerves are jangling for both teams: Yealimi Noh and Julia Lopez Ramirez tie the 14th in bogey. Both do well to make four-foot knee-shakers, having left long putts short … and having previously chunked and thinned a wedge respectively. But they get the job done. This is outrageously exciting. Please stop biting your nails. (I am biting my nails.)

Nastasia Nadaud from the centre of the par-five 16th fairway. Andrea Lee has gone over the back of the green. The door is open … but Nadaud whistles her ball into the bunker back right. Europe have lots of blue on the board, but absolutely none of it is a sure thing. The tension at Bernardus palpable.

From the centre of the 16th fairway, Nanna Madsen dunks her iron into the water guarding the front of the green! She wedges in from the dropzone, but she’s taken four now, and Allisen Corpuz is behind the green in two. Corpuz chips up elegantly to 18 inches, and that’s a win that keeps the US alive in that match! Meanwhile Celine Boutier breaks a run of nine halved holes in the anchor match with birdie. Some more blue on the board.

Andrea Lee has her heart in her mouth as she slightly pulls her tee shot at the par-three 15th. But not enough to find the water on the left. She’s back left of the green, and lags up to make her par and secure a half. Meanwhile Jennifer Kupcho grabs another hole back from Carlota Ciganda … as does Auston Kim against Lottie Woad, draining one from distance on 13! Game on (x2)!

Meanwhile a chance for Julia Lopez Ramirez to double her advantage against Yealimi Noh on 13, but her short, straight birdie putt horseshoes out. That’s careless. The nerves are really beginning to kick in now, with both sides spotting a route to victory.

Europe 10-9 USA
Both Alison Lee and Esther Henseleit find the 18th in regulation. But Henseleit is much further out, and she can’t repeat her heroics on the 72nd at the British Open. The putt stops short, and she concedes the match. And so completes the biggest comeback in Solheim Cup singles history. Hearts break for poor Henseleit, who has brought so much to this edition, only to falter over the closing stretch. But hats off to Lee, who looked down and out before finding the hero within: she was five under through the last 11 holes!

She’s three up over Allisen Corpuz with four to play! Meanwhile Mimi Rhodes and Nelly Korda take turns to send their approaches into 16 long and right. Rhodes is in much thicker nonsense, however.

Birdie for Mimi Rhodes on 15, and she’s still alive! That’s got the gallery going, though further up the course, plenty are stunned at Esther Henseleit’s collapse. Alison Lee has played some magnificent golf to get herself back into the match, but there’s not been much resistance. A couple of poor wedges, a couple of putts that have shaved the hole, and the margins between success and failure at the Solheim Cup are so small. Meanwhile Jennifer Kupcho snatches a hole back against Carlota Ciganda, and she’s not given up hope of doing some more ear-cupping yet.

Alison Lee smells blood, and she fires an arrow straight at the flag on 17. Six feet away. Esther Henseleit gets to 12 feet, but she’s going to five Lee the read, and when she shaves the edge, that aforementioned blood drains from her face. Lee knows the line now, and she’s half the distance in. She’s never missing, and from four down with seven to play, she’s now dormie. Half a point guaranteed for the USA. Heartbreaking for Henseleit. Meanwhile par is enough for Lindy Duncan on 9, and she’s now in total control against Maja Stark.

Mimi Rhodes on the brink. She really needs to chip in on 14, because Nelly Korda is on in regulation, albeit 70 feet away. Should Rhodes lose the hole, that’s that. But she nearly holes out! A tap-in for par, and though Korda goes close with her monster putt, which would close out the match, it’s just the half, and Rhodes stays alive for now.
Another birdie for Lindy Duncan on 8, and the 35-year-old rookie moves two clear of Maja Stark. Linn Grant can’t get up and down from greenside sand at 14, and Angel Yin isn’t finished yet. It’s another birdie for Julia Lopez Ramirez, at 10, and she’s taking control against Yealimi Noh. And how about this: birdie for Alison Lee on 16 to win her fourth hole in five against the crumbling Esther Henseleit! All square and what looked a sure point for Europe is now anything but!

Her third birdie of the day, this time at 9, and she hits the turn against Auston Kim four holes to the good. Meanwhile Nanna Madsen walks in a long putt on 12 to double her lead over Allisen Corpuz. And Carlota Ciganda bounces back from that egregious tee shot on 6 by rolling in a 30-footer on 7 to reestablish her four-hole lead over Jennifer Kupcho. Looking good for Europe right now.

Meanwhile Esther Henseleit has the opportunity to turn the momentum around in her match against Alison Lee, but her straight-enough-looking 12-foot birdie chance on 15 dies off to the left.

Lottie Woad birdies 8 to establish dominance over Auston Kim. Julia Lopez Ramirez turns around her match against Yealimi Noh with par at 7 and birdie at 9. Angel Yin finds a greenside bunker at 13 and can’t get up and down; Linn Grant is now four up. As is Nelly Korda: Mimi Rhodes misses a short par putt on 12 to go four down with six to play.

The eagle-eyed will have spotted Lindy Duncan levelling things up against Maja Stark. Birdie at 6 does the job. Meanwhile Esther Henseleit is beginning to unravel: she follows that chunked chip by thinning a bunker shot through the 14th green, and that’s a third hole gone in a row. And on 6, Carlota Ciganda shanks her tee shot into the drink. Not a banner few moments for Team Europe.
Lauren Coughlan is taking control against Leona Maguire. She rolls in a downhill 20-footer for birdie to go 3UP. Linn Grant’s 15-foot birdie putt on 12 dies off to the left on its final turn; Angel Yin takes two putts from the fringe at the back to tie the hole. And Megan Khang is still to win a hole today, leaving a makeable birdie putt on 15 short. Meanwhile Nanna Madsen reclaims the lead against Allisen Corpuz by sending her third close at the par-five 10th, while Carlota Ciganda extends her lead against an out-of-sorts Jennifer Kupcho. That’s four birdies and four holes in a row for the Spaniard!

Charley Hull pulls her drive at 14 down the left. She’s lucky to evade the heather, but she’s blocked out, and her second bounds away from the green and into sandy trouble. She lobs up well to ten feet, but with Megan Khang in for par, she needs to make the putt to retain her two-shot lead. And in it goes! A perfectly weighted right-to-left curler. But bad news for Europe back on 13, where Esther Henseleit, already out of position, chunks a greenside chip, and concedes the hole. Her four-hole lead cleaved in half in a couple of holes.

Linn Grant restores her three-hole lead over Angel Yin.

Meanwhile par on 8 is good enough for Nastasia Nadaud to take the lead against Andrea Lee for the first time in her match. Ditto Julia Lopez Ramirez on 7, her par levelling the match against Yealimi Noh. Quite a few of these matches are oscillating gently in the breeze. Good luck predicting the outcomes!

Jennifer Kupcho makes a royal balls of the par-three 4th. She sends her tee shot onto a grassy knoll to the right of the green. Her chip down doesn’t make the putting surface and performs a u-turn down a swale. Then her putt up fails to make it, too. She picks up and moves on, 3DOWN already. Those heroics of yesterday evening may have taken an emotional toll. Meanwhile Allisen Corpuz rolls in a 20-footer on 9 to tie things up again against Nanna Madsen.
Alison Lee wins her first hole of the day, sending her approach at 12 to four feet and tidying up for birdie. Her deficit against Esther Henseleit whittled down to three. Meanwhile Angel Yin clips a tree to the left of the par-three 11th, so her comeback is in danger of stalling the minute it began.

Meanwhile Jennifer Kupcho, who made 122 feet’s worth of putts on 17 and 18 last night, misses a chance to tie the 2nd against Carlota Ciganda from three feet. Golf, huh.
