Kerr channeling Inkster's leadership qualities

INCHEON, South Korea – There are no captains leading the teams at the UL International Crown, but that doesn’t mean there isn’t a bit of Juli Inkster following the American team around.

Inkster, the Hall of Famer, has remade the culture of the American Solheim Cup team as captain and architect of the last two victories.

And Inkster will lead the Americans for an unprecedented third straight Solheim Cup next year in Scotland.

Cristie Kerr says Inkster’s influence is with her in South Korea this week.

“We all know Juli was a great player, but it’s an entirely different deal to lead,” Kerr said.
