2024 Solheim Cup: Nelly Korda among the 6 terrific Team USA qualifiers

The qualifiers for Team USA and Team Europe officially dropped after the final major championship wrapped at St. Andrews.

The 2024 Solheim Cup officially has its qualifiers for Team Europe and Team USA.

Now, 17 of the 24 spots are full for the upcoming event.

Of course, a handful of ladies secured their spots long before Sunday, but nonetheless, it is official now. Nelly Korda and Lili Vu have held their spots since early summer. Lauren Coughlin, Ally Ewing and Allisen Corpuz came into the final major with their spots secured.

The 2024 Solheim Cup is at Robert F. Trent Jones Golf Club in Virginia on Sept. 13-15.

Team USA captain Stacy Lewis will have three captain’s picks to make, while Team Europe’s captain Suzann Pettersen will have four captain’s picks.

Both captains will make their picks this week. Pettersen will make her first on Monday, August 26, and Lewis will select her girls on Tuesday morning.

For now, let’s look at both teams and see who qualified.

Team USA Solheim Cup Qualifiers:

— Nelly Korda
— Lilia Vu
— Lauren Coughlin
— Ally Ewing
— Allisen Corpuz
— Megan Khang
— Andrea Lee
— Angel Yin
— Rose Zhang

Team Europe Solheim Cup Qualifers:

— Charley Hull
— Esther Henseleit
— Celine Boutier
— Maja Stark
— Linn Grant
— Leona Maguire
— Carlota Ciganda
— Madelene Sagström

These ladies performed highly throughout the qualifying period and earned a spot.

Team Europe is full of veterans, while Team USA still has a lot of youth and experience.

The week in Virginia will produce another all-out battle that will bring the drama and go down to the wire.

Once both captains pick, we will update the rosters and provide an in-depth look at each squad.

Who do you think Team USA and Team Europe should select to finish out their teams?
