If Catriona Matthew isn’t appointed to return as the European Solheim Cup captain, it will be an upset.
The British media has all but confirmed that the Scot will reprise her role with this week’s news that the Ladies European Tour will announce the 2021 Euro captain in a news conference at the Gleneagles Hotel in Scotland on Nov. 14. Matthew grew up in North Berwick, just south of Gleneagles, and still lives there.
“Matthew set to captain again at 2021 Solheim Cup,” trumpeted a headline this week in Scotland’s national newspaper, The Scotsman.
“Catriona Matthew on track to be reappointed European captain after Solheim Cup triumph,” was the headline in the national British daily The Telegraph.
