The Solheim Cup is one of Golf's younger events having only been irst played in 1990 when Karsten Solheim, the founder of Ping, started this prestigeous event to back women's golf which he was an avid supporter of. Played much like the Ryder Cup, with the event taking place every 2 years and alternating course locations between the US and Europe, the Solheim Cup is full of passion and driven by emotion of the top women's golfers in the world as they compete for national glory.
