Europe rally to dominate US in Solheim CupWorld number one Nelly Korda lines up a putt for the United States on the opening day of the Solheim Cup competition against Europe. NEW YORK: Europe edged into a three-point lead over the United States at the Solheim Cup on Saturday as a controversial ruling helped world number one Nelly Korda and Ally Ewing grab a crucial victory. That handed Europe captain Catriona Matthew's team a commanding 3 1/2 point to 1/2 point lead before the afternoon fourballs were squared at two wins apiece. It means Europe will take a 5 1/2 to 2 1/2 lead into Sunday's second day of foursomes and fourballs. Then on the par-five 13th, Korda saw her curling putt for an eagle to win the hole finish on the lip of the cup.
