With the clock ticking for American Solheim Cup hopefuls, Lizette Salas made a move Thursday to try to secure her return to the team.
With a 7-under-par 64, Salas moved into an early tie for the lead in the first round of the Meijer Classic at Blythefield Country Club in Grand Rapids, Mich.
Salas sits 10th on the U.S. Solheim Cup points list with just four events remaining to qualify for the team. The top eight at the conclusion of the Canadian Pacific Women’s Open on Aug. 23 earn an automatic spot on the team.
