Lewis names Creamer, Lincicome among her four Solheim Cup assistants

U.S. captain Stacy Lewis on Tuesday named major champions Morgan Pressel, Angela Stanford, Paula Creamer and Brittany Lincicome as her assistants for September's Solheim Cup in Gainesville, Virginia.

Creamer and Lincicome will serve as assistants for the first time while Pressel and Stanford worked alongside Lewis in the 2023 Solheim Cup in Andalusia, Spain, where Europe secured a third straight triumph in the top team event in women's golf.

"These four have so much experience and love for the Solheim Cup, plus they're my friends and all major champions too," said former world number one Lewis. "I'm excited to see them in this role and to help prepare them to be future captains as well."

Creamer, a 10-time LPGA Tour winner who became a major champion at the 2010 U.S. Women's Open, played on her first U.S. Solheim Cup team as an LPGA Tour rookie in 2005 at age 19, then the youngest player in the event's history.

The 37-year-old Creamer also represented the U.S. in 2007, 2009, 2011, 2013, 2015 and 2017 and her seven foursomes wins are the most for any American player.

"When Stacy asked me to be on her team for the Solheim Cup, I couldn't say yes fast enough," said Creamer. "My seven Solheim Cups are some of the best memories of my career, and I can't wait to make more memories working with Stacy."

Lincicome has top-10 finishes in all five LPGA Tour major championships, including titles at the 2009 and 2015 Chevron Championships.

Having competed in six Solheim Cups, Lincicome's four four-ball partnerships with Brittany Lang are the most for any duo in Solheim Cup history, and the pair went a perfect 4-0-0.

"Serving as an assistant captain to the U.S. Solheim Cup team will be one of the greatest honors of my career," said
