Lewis adds Angel Yin to US Solheim Cup team for matches in Spain

U.S. captain Stacy Lewis filled out the rest of her Solheim Cup team on Monday without any surprises except for how they earned their spots on a team that will try to win back the trophy next month in Spain.

Lewis used her three captain’s picks on Ally Ewing, Angel Yin and Cheyenne Knight, the next three available Americans in the women’s world ranking. Ewing and Yin have played in two Solheim Cups and join an American team that has five rookies.

The matches are Sept. 22-24 at Finca Cortesin along the southern coast of Spain. Europe has won the last two times.

“I don’t know what the rankings would show on paper, but Europe has to be favored,” Lewis said. “We’re going overseas. That’s not to doubt my team. I think Europe is really strong. They have all the momentum. ... We have a lot of new blood that hasn’t experienced the last two.”

Angels selection follows a great 2023 with some Stellar performances and having appeared at two previous Solheim Cups will bring a wealth of experience to Team USA.
