Hull and Pettersen Snatch Victory From Jaws of Defeat

ST LEON-ROT, Germany — The nerveless Charley Hull and the steely-eyed Suzann Pettersen sent the crowd wild with delight on Saturday as they pulled off one of the finest comebacks in the 25-year history of the Solheim Cup.

The European pair were staring defeat in the face at four down with seven to play but a scorching run of five birdies in the last seven holes helped them defeat a stunned Morgan Pressel and Paula Creamer one up in a rip-roaring foursomes.

"I told Charley, let's throw darts at the pins and stay aggressive," Pettersen told reporters at the women's version of the Ryder Cup.
