Lewis has now helped her team earn a tie in Spain in 2023 and a streak-snapping home victory this year at Robert Trent Jones Golf Club, sweating out a 15½-12½ win to lift the Solheim Cup for the first time since 2017.
Zhang joins Dottie Pepper (1998) and Morgan Pressel (2011) as the only US players to ever score 4 points in a Solheim Cup. She bettered Pepper and Pressel’s record, however, by never having a match get to the 17th hole. That’s a Solheim Cup record.
Todd Anderson, Zhang’s coach and top-10 ranked Golf Digest teaching professional, says that to practise making longer putts, you should try the 100-foot drill.
Remarkable, amazing, inspiring, historic. Those are the words her fellow competitors reserve for Korda, and starting tonight (Australian time), she’ll have a chance to add a new chapter to her best year as a professional.
Zhang explained that while major venues test all of a player’s skills, there is extra emphasis for her in the short game and course management – lessons she learned in her eight majors as an amateur.
Zhang said she will have five classes during Stanford’s winter quarter, taking on a loaded 22-unit schedule. She is about halfway through the requirements to earn her degree.
For the third week in a row, the LPGA Tour needed a playoff to determine a winner. And this one nearly set the record for the longest playoff in tour history.
