Solheim Cup captain Anna Nordqvist says Leona Maguire is a player you can 'trust'

"You know she's as competitive as it gets," said the 2026 Team Europe Solheim Cup captain, "You know she's going to do everything she can to put a point on the board."

Anna Nordqvist hopes to be paired with some of her prospective Solheim Cup players during the golf season's European swing over the coming weeks. 

"Taking on this role as a captain while I'm still playing, it obviously allows me to kind of see them play inside the ropes, which I feel like I've enjoyed," said Nordqvist, a three-time Major winner who will captain Team Europe at next year's competition in the Netherlands.
