Anna Nordqvist has publicly affirmed that Charley Hull’s form is exactly where it should be, and she has demonstrated her trust in the English golfer by assigning her the opening singles slot for Team Europe on the final day of the Solheim Cup. Hull’s contribution so far has been modest—she has collected just half a point from her four matches—but she will again be the first European to step onto the tee for the Sunday singles, replicating the role she played two years earlier when she delivered a dominant 6&4 victory over Nelly Korda in the same position. The Swedish veteran’s confidence in Hull comes after a mixed weekend for the Englishwoman. On Saturday, Hull partnered with Lottie Woad in two four‑ball matches that both ended in defeat.
The pair suffered a historic loss in the foursomes, being beaten 6&5 by the American duo of Alison Lee and Lauren Coughlin—a margin that ties for the biggest ever in Solheim Cup history. Their second match also slipped away on the final hole, as they were outplayed by Yealimi Noh and Andrea Lee. Despite those setbacks, Nordqvist believes Hull has the tools and mindset needed to rebound. "Charley started us out in Washington for the 2024 Solheim Cup and we’ve watched her play exceptionally well over the past two days," Nordqvist said.
"She hasn’t missed a single putt, and I observed her match today for several holes; she’s exactly where she needs to be right now." The Swedish captain added that what Hull needs most is a surge of momentum, a factor that often proves decisive in match‑play formats. "That little bit of momentum can change everything," Nordqvist explained. "I have complete confidence in her for tomorrow’s singles. She doesn’t have anything to prove—her record already speaks for itself, and we all know what a talented player she is." The singles schedule kicks off at 10:10 a.m.
