Pettersen names four vice-captains for Solheim Cup

European Solheim Cup captain Suzann Pettersen has confirmed her team of four vice-captains for the 2024 Solheim Cup, which will be played at Robert Trent Jones Golf Club in September.

Pettersen had three vice-captains alongside her at the 2023 Solheim Cup with Anna Nordqvist, Laura Davies and Caroline Martens all bringing different skills, knowledge and experience to the backroom team.
