ST LEON-ROT, Germany — The second day of the Solheim Cup had it all, a heated exchange between the captains, a startling comeback, and a strong effort from Europe that gave the holders an 8-5 lead over the U.S on Saturday.
An exhaustingly long day containing a spill-over from Friday's play meant that three afternoon fourballs will have to be completed on Sunday ahead of the 12 singles matches that are going to decide the destiny of the trophy.
After the two uncompleted fourballs from the night before both ended in halves, U.S. skipper Juli Inkster and European counterpart Carin Koch were involved in a lengthy finger-wagging dispute out on the course.
