PING Junior Solheim Cup
Inaugurated in 2002 by John Solheim, Chairman and CEO of PING, the PING Junior Solheim Cup is a version of The Solheim Cup for female amateurs aged 18 and under (born 2003 and later) and follows a similar format to the senior event, featuring the top 12 European junior amateurs versus their American counterparts.
The aim of the competition is to give junior golfers from both sides of the Atlantic the opportunity to gain international match play experience as well as the chance to meet, learn and be inspired by the professional players in The Solheim Cup.
The next PING Junior Solheim Cup will take place at Sylvania Country Club, Toledo, Ohio, United States, September 1-3, 2021. The venue is located 15 minutes from the Solheim Cup venue, Inverness Club.
Annika Sörenstam is the Captain for Team EUROPE and Renee Powell is the Captain for Team USA. The teams will be selected in July 2021.
