After an exciting first day at the 2023 Solheim Cup in Malaga, Spain, the action will resume Saturday morning at 2:10 a.m. ET with Emily Kristine Pedersen and local countrywoman Carlota Ciganda taking on World No. 2 Lilia Vu and Jennifer Kupcho.
Pedersen hit the second hole-in-one in the history of the Solheim Cup on Friday. It was a bright spot for the Europeans after the United States swept them 4-0 in the morning for the first time ever. Europe did manage to earn a few points and close the gap (5-3) thanks to two wins and two halves in the afternoon fourballs.
