Most of the Euro team is American based players who just get the required 6 LET tournaments anyway. Only 4 get in on LET points now. Yup....Mannika is really a Yank...she's a FAKE Swede. I still feel the 3rd & 4th picks will be from Sagstrom, Aza or Sandra.

Angel Yin over Nelly is some big drama! I wonder if Nelly is the Korda alternate.
How much of a reach is Sagstrom? I know she had a couple decent showings lately but. I guess she is 69th in the world. She's defo a Golf Industrial Complex media bolstered athlete.

Love it....Jagger knows that Angel will punch Masson out if there is any drama and Angel won't cry like GIMMEE over Tutta's BS....you know if Tutta tries any crap on Angel...Yin will walk up to Tutta and tell her to FO face to face within 18 inches. Although Angel is only 18...she can out drink any of the Yank softies. Angel will pair well with Kerr, The Asian Giraffe or Kang...though I think Juli will pair the 2 FAKES together. Jess should sit out with her FAKE injury and let baby sister play as the alternate....so 18majors doesn't pout the entire month of August...just sayin. And all you Yanks...don't think they Euros will just lay down....Mannika will have them all RAGING on ROIDS. Ole Ole!

I'm still shocked Inkster picked Yin over Nelly. I know it was close.
Yin might benefit more from the Solheim Cup than Nelly. Ms. Korda won't have trouble becoming a popular star on the LPGA. She already is one.
But if I had to put my middle school girl clique thinking cap on Yin has more of a "one of the girls" personality than Nelly. Same w/ Ernst. They seem like fun teammates.

That's what the Cap'n was going for. Nelly is probably the alternate pick if Jessica can't go. Yin came within 2 strokes of qualifying on her own, so Cap probably had to consider that more than she figured. Ernst got shafted last time around on picks when they reached down for Paula.

I think a good rule of thumb is that you should have to qualify for your first Cup team and stalwarts get 1 captains pick at the end of their Cup careers. But in Yin's case she only played for a year. If she played last year she may have qualified on points. Or if we just took 2017 points. I don't know. I'm really happy with these picks now that you mention Ernst got Creamed last time.

I'll have to remember to DVR the Solheim Cup because I'll be too busy watching the No Jamaicans 100m Dash and the No Kenyans Marathon

The Ernst pick is a goof, but not a fatal one. I would have picked Marina Alex over her...Ernst is ranked a little higher, but Marina has outplayed her in the majors...especially with a T-11 at the USWO last month. It would make sense if Marina is Inkster's envelope player if J. Korda can't play. Angel is a good pick...and NOT picking Paula, Morgan, and Stanford is good, too.
On the Euro side, I guess it was too little, too late for Aza...it's a little more surprising that Sandra didn't make it. They would have been nice for the scenery. Lucky for Pedersen she didn't ruin her chances by trunk slamming at the RWBO.

After reading Mell's article on how crushed Paula is, I'd be willing to bet that she's the "secret alternate" in the event Korda can't play. We may never know.

I would have gone with Aza too over one of the rookies since they already have Geogia as a rookie, but hard to guess what Annika was thinking.

The Solheim Cup will feature just one top ten player (Thompson). I wonder what the rest of the world's elite thinks of this event and the selection process. It becomes such a focus especially for the Americans. Meanwhile foreign (Asian) players are hogging up the tournament trophies, and rising in the real-world rankings. Sorry to say but the Americans' status on the LPGA is so low. They might be able to lord their status over Euros but let's face it, they're still down in the gutter with them. If the tradeoff is more trophies for Koreans, then let the Americans keep focusing on the Solheim!
