Leona Maguire and Charley Hull delivered an impressive fourballs victory to help pull Team Europe back level with Team USA heading into the Sunday singles at the Solheim Cup.
Europe recovered from being swept in Friday’s opening session to win three of the four fourballs matches later that day, with Suzann Pettersen’s side now tied at 8-8 after following a share of the spoils in the Saturday foursomes with another impressive fourballs display.
Maguire and Hull claimed an impressive 4&3 win over Nelly Korda and Ally Ewing, while a 2&1 success for Madelene Sagstrom and Emily Pedersen over Rose Zhang and Andrea Lee completed the European comeback.
