European team names first four players for Solheim Cup

With England’s Melissa Reid seizing the final qualifier spot Sunday off the Ladies European Tour points list, the Euros have solidified four of the 12 spots on the team that will face the Americans Sept. 18-20 at St. Leon-Rot Golf Club outside Heidelberg, Germany.

The four automatic qualifier spots off the LET points list were decided Sunday with Norway’s Suzann Pettersen, France’s Gwladys Nocera and England’s Charley Hull grabbing the first three spots.

Four more automatic qualifier spots will be decided on Aug. 24 off the Rolex Women’s World Rankings list, with the top four Europeans not already qualified on LET points making the team.
