Irish player picked just once before Sunday singlesUSA won match by three points to regain trophy
The Solheim Cup had not even finished before recriminations around the defeated European team began but Suzann Pettersen, the captain, appears unmoved by any criticism of her leadership.
Leona Maguire used the immediate aftermath of a singles win over Ally Ewing to take what was barely even a veiled swipe at Pettersen. Maguire, a star of Europe’s success in Toledo three years ago who was prominent again in Spain in 2023, featured in only one of four sessions before the Sunday singles. She labelled this a “bitter pill to swallow” and, while insisting she was a “team player”, appeared to question Pettersen’s judgment.
