US Solheim Cup trio confirmed

Three locked in for US squad

The 2026 US Solheim Cup team is taking shape - and it already looks like trouble for Europe. Nelly Korda, Angel Yin, and Jennifer Kupcho have all confirmed their places on the roster.

Yin and Kupcho punched their tickets through the Solheim Cup points standings. No captain's pick needed this time around for Yin, who had relied on that route in previous years. Both will make their fourth appearance at the event.

Battle-tested and hungry

These are not rookies. Yin carries a 5-3-1 record into the competition. Kupcho's 3-4-1 mark suggests she has a point to prove. Captain Angela Stanford clearly sees that fire as an asset.

Stanford has made no secret of her enthusiasm. She praised the competitive spirit and intensity both players bring, insisting those qualities will be crucial on European soil.

Race for remaining spots heats up

The top seven Americans in the standings after the 2026 CPKC Women's Open earn automatic qualification. Right now, Auston Kim, Yealimi Noh, Allisen Corpuz, and Lauren Coughlin sit in the next four positions.

After that, the top Rolex Rankings performers fill two more spots. Stanford then gets three captain's picks to complete the twelve-player squad. Expect fierce jockeying in the weeks ahead.
