Solheim Cup 2026: Team USA defends title on Dutch soil – Full schedule, rosters and broadcast info for Vietnam

The 2026 Solheim Cup, the most prestigious women's team golf event between the U.S. and Europe, will take place from September 11-13 at Bernardus Golf in the Netherlands. The opening ceremony is on September 10. This is the second consecutive edition held in Europe, following the U.S. victory on home soil in 2026. The U.S. team ended a three-match losing streak with a dominant performance at Robert Trent Jones Golf Club. They lead the all-time record 11-8. A win in the Netherlands would extend it to 12-8. Team Europe, captained by Anna Nordqvist, aims to reclaim the Cup with home advantage. Key players include Charley Hull and Lottie Woad. The U.S. team, led by captain Angela Stanford, features stars like Nelly Korda and Rose Zhang. The format is similar to the Ryder Cup: three days of match play, with alternate shot and fourball on Friday and Saturday, and singles on Sunday. There are 28 total points; a team needs 14.5 to win. Golf Channel provides TV coverage in the U.S. In Vietnam, fans can watch via sports networks or stream on Golf Channel app. Due to time differences, broadcasts start at 12:30 PM local time on Friday and Saturday, and 4:00 PM on Sunday. The U.S. has a stronger lineup, but Europe has home-soil advantage on a links-style course. The key will be pairings and adaptability to windy conditions. Expect a close contest; the U.S. is slightly favored, but Europe could surprise. This event is significant for Vietnam's growing golf community, offering lessons in teamwork and strategy. Although no Vietnamese players are competing, watching top-level golf encourages local development. Prediction: The U.S. narrowly wins 14.5-13.5, but Europe could turn the tide with strong home support. Don't miss the action!
