Lee Leads with Perfect Record as Solheim Cup Stands Even
On Friday at Bernardus Golf in the Netherlands, Lee was the standout performer, achieving a perfect 2-0-0 record. This performance made him the only player from either the U.S. or European teams to accomplish this feat. The Solheim Cup’s morning foursomes and afternoon four-ball sessions concluded with both teams evenly matched, resulting in a 4-4 tie after the first day of competition.
