Friday morning’s format can be Foursomes. Tee instances are from 7:05-7:41 a.m. EST. For these unfamiliar, Foursomes are when two gamers alternate photographs on the identical ball.

Who will Group USA captain Stacy Lewis pair so her staff can begin robust? The general public will discover out later Thursday night on the Opening Ceremony at 4:30 p.m. EST.

So seize your espresso and breakfast and be a part of me whereas I pair women based mostly on who I feel will play one of the best collectively and assist the People win this primary session.

Now that we see the Group USA roster let’s decide the 4 pairings for Friday morning.

— Lexi Thompson and Megan Khang

Lexi Thompson and Megan Khang have been the primary pairing off in 2023. They received 2 & 1 over Linn Grant and Maja Stark, so I feel they’d make an awesome opening pairing once more. What resulted in a win final 12 months ought to do the identical in 2024.

Thompson’s Swan Track will pull out all her aggressive tenacity, and Khang can feed off it.

— Nelly Korda and Lilia Vu

I wish to put these two collectively as a result of they’re two of one of the best on the planet. It might be a great combination with Nelly Korda’s size off the tee and Lilia Vu’s quick sport. We see Ryder Cup groups pair these huge names collectively, and I might like to see Lewis put these two on the identical staff to see what occurs.

— Allisen Corpuz and Rose Zhang

Pairing these two collectively could be unimaginable to observe. Allisen Corpuz received each her matches final 12 months with Korda, however I assume she would play with the identical mentality if Rose Zhang have been her associate. Zhang solely received half a degree final 12 months in Spain, so placing her with somebody like Corpuz will solely pull out her finest.

— Ally Ewing and Jennifer Kupcho

Main as much as this week, these two have been enjoying nicely and completed as runner-ups on the Dow Championship. Ally Ewing performed in foursomes through the 2021 Solheim Cup, and Jennifer Kupcho dealt with totally different companions final 12 months on this format. They might be nice collectively.

Different potential pairings for foursomes on the Solheim Cup:

— Nelly Korda and Allisen Corpuz
— Rose Zhang and Megan Khang
— Lilia Vu and Sarah Schmelzel
— Rose Zhang and Andrea Lee
