A thrilling 14-14 draw in Spain, the first in the contest’s history, ensured Europe held on to the cup following victories in Ohio in 2021 and at Gleneagles in 2019, where controversial wild card Pettersen holed the winning putt and promptly announced her retirement.
The Norwegian was appointed captain for both 2023 and 2024 due to the encounters being held just a year apart as a result of the Solheim Cup moving to even years to avoid clashing with the Ryder Cup, with US captain Stacy Lewis also doing the same.
“It’s been a quick year since Spain,” Pettersen said. “Obviously it was a quick turnaround, a fast celebration.
“At the same time, I think it’s a great challenge to try and go out there again and get the job done. The players are all up for it and it’s always going to be a big task.
