Team Europe reclaimed the Solheim Cup with a 15-13 victory over the United States at Bernardus Golf in Den Bosch, Netherlands, on September 13, 2026. Lottie Woad secured the clinching point with a 2-foot putt on No. 17, guaranteeing Europe reached the 14½ points needed. Carlota Ciganda sealed the win with a 4-and-2 victory over Jennifer Kupcho, echoing her decisive role in Europe’s 2023 triumph.

Captain Anna Nordqvist, who announced her retirement two weeks prior, lifted the trophy amid celebrations featuring blue-and-yellow smoke and chants of “Olé, Olé, Olé, Olé.” Europe won six of the first eight singles matches, with strong contributions from rookies Lottie Woad, Nastasia Nadaud, and Julia Lopez Ramirez. Charley Hull and Linn Grant provided early momentum, while Alison Lee’s comeback over Esther Henseleit marked the greatest in Solheim Cup history. Europe has now won three of the past five editions, ending the U.S.’s brief possession of the trophy.

The U.S. leads the all-time series 11-8 with one draw.
