Solheim Cup: Charley Hull drops cold, hard facts about Europe’s deficit to Team USA
Charley Hull remains optimistic about Team Europe’s chances in the 2024 Solheim Cup despite trailing Team USA 10-6 heading into the Sunday singles. Hull, a seasoned Solheim Cup veteran, was instrumental in Europe’s performance on Saturday, winning both of her matches. After she and Esther Henseleit claimed victory in their morning foursome match, Hull emphasized that Europe is not out of the competition yet.
With a confident grin, she remarked, “When you think you’re out of it, carry on grinding because it’s not over until the fat lady sings,” reflecting the team’s resilient spirit. Hull and her close friend, Georgia Hall, also triumphed in the afternoon Four Ball match, defeating Team USA’s Allisen Corpuz and Lilia Vu 2 UP.
As Europe looks to overturn the deficit, Hull knows that Sunday singles can change everything. She is prepared to lead by example, encouraging her teammates to “win your own point, have fun out there, and just kick some ass.” Despite Team USA’s early lead, Hull’s experience in past Solheim Cups fuels her belief that a comeback is possible.
The American side has not won the Cup in seven years, and while they maintained their lead on Saturday, history shows that Sunday’s singles can be unpredictable. With veterans like Hull in their ranks, Team Europe is prepared to fight for a fourth consecutive Solheim Cup victory.
