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 spot for Team Europe on Sunday. Hull’s contribution so far has been modest—she has earned only half a point from her four matches—but she will still lead Europe’s line‑up for the second straight Solheim Cup, just as she did two years ago when she delivered a decisive 6&4 victory over Nelly Korda in the same position. The veteran of many Solheim Cups partnered Lottie Woad in the Saturday sessions, and the duo suffered two heavy defeats. Their first foursomes match ended in a historic 6&5 loss to the American pair of Alison Lee and Lauren Coughlin, marking one of the largest margins ever recorded in the event’s history.
The second partnership fell short as well, succumbing to Yealimi Noh and Andrea Lee on the final hole. Despite those setbacks, Nordqvist remains convinced that Hull can rebound.
"Charley opened the competition for us in Washington this year, and we have watched her play exceptionally well over the past two days," Nordqvist said. "She hasn’t missed any putts that matter.
I observed her match this afternoon for several holes, and she is exactly where she needs to be right now." Nordqvist added that what Hull needs most is a surge of momentum, something that can be decisive in match‑play formats. "That little burst of confidence is crucial," she explained.
"I have complete faith in her heading out tomorrow. She doesn’t have anything to prove; we already know how talented she is." The singles schedule kicks off at 10:10 a.m. local time (10:10 BST) with Hull facing Megan Khang. The day will feature a full slate of head‑to‑head battles, including match‑ups such as Alison Lee versus Esther Henseleit, Angel Yin against Linn Grant, Nelly Korda playing Mimi Rhodes, and Allisen Corpuz taking on Nanna Koerstz Madsen.
Later in the lineup, Andrea Lee will meet rookie Nastasia Nadaud, while Yealimi Noh squares off with debutante Julia Lopez Ramirez. Other notable pairings include Auston Kim versus Lottie Woad, Lauren Coughlin versus Ireland’s Leona Maguire, Lindy Duncan against Swedish star Maja Stark, and the penultimate clash between Carlota Ciganda and Jennifer Kupcho, the United States’ Saturday four‑ball hero.
The final singles match will see Rose Zhang take on Celine Boutier. Team USA enters the final day needing six points to retain the Cup, a task made more challenging by the fact that they secured the title on home soil in Virginia two years ago.
Europe, on the other hand, must capture at least 6.5 points from the singles to clinch an outright victory—their first since 2021. Weather is expected to play a pivotal role. The on‑site meteorologist has warned of persistent rain throughout the morning, with moderate to heavy showers likely to continue into the early afternoon.
Forecasts indicate a 70‑90 percent chance of rain from dawn until mid‑day, with up to an inch of precipitation possible between Saturday night and Sunday morning. Such conditions could affect both the speed of the greens and the players’ ability to maintain rhythm. The singles session is slated to begin at 1:22 p.m. (12:22 p.m.
BST) and is expected to run until roughly 5:30 p.m. local time, after which the closing ceremony will commence around 6:15 p.m.

While the Solheim Cup provides a dramatic showcase of elite women’s golf, the sport remains accessible to players of all levels who wish to experience the same fairways and greens that host the world’s top talent. In summary, Charley Hull’s placement at the top of Europe’s singles order reflects both her proven ability to deliver under pressure and the confidence placed in her by a seasoned captain.
Whether she can translate that confidence into points against a determined Megan Khang will be a key storyline on a day when every half‑point could swing the outcome of the Cup. The combination of high‑stakes match play, unpredictable weather, and a packed schedule of talent ensures that Sunday’s singles will be a compelling finale to one of women’s golf’s most prestigious events.
