Solheim Cup-winning captain Anna Nordqvist has left the door open for a potential return to lead Team Europe in 2028, having guided the hosts to a 15-13 victory over Team USA at Bernardus Golf in the Netherlands. Nordqvist, who announced her playing retirement just weeks before the event, admitted juggling captaincy with LPGA Tour duties had been more demanding than expected. In her victory press conference, she joked about retiring 'tomorrow' but added she would need time off before deciding her future.

She praised the experience of staying involved in golf through leadership, calling it rewarding despite the nerves of watching her team play. Nordqvist's performance was lauded by players and peers, including Angela Stanford, who called her a great captain. Suzann Pettersen and Catriona Matthew were referenced as past captains, with Matthew noting Europe may offer Nordqvist the choice to continue, emphasizing the need to let the team cherish this win before looking ahead to 2028, which will be hotly contested with emerging rookies.
