The teams are level after slugging it out on day one, and the USA as holders have the tie in their pocket, but there is one way in which Europe have the advantage. Every player has seen some action already, and only two Europeans are pointless: Celine Boutier and Nanna Madsen, who were strangely sent out for a second match yesterday afternoon after their out-of-sorts display in the morning. The USA have five players still to make their mark, and four of them \u2013 Jennifer Kupcho, Rose Zhang, Andrea Lee and Auston Kim \u2013 will play in these upcoming foursomes. Again, good luck guessing how this is going to go.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"mailto:?subject=Solheim Cup golf 2026: Europe v USA, day two foursomes \u2013 live&amp;body=https:\/\/www.theguardian.com\/sport\/live\/2026\/sep\/12\/solheim-cup-golf-2026-europe-v-usa-day-two-live?CMP=share_btn_url&amp;page=with%3Ablock-6aa4e4818f081c4c84515b22#block-6aa4e4818f081c4c84515b22\" type=\"button\" class=\"dcr-10ju04u\">Share<\/a>Day two preamble: Europe 4-4 USA<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-1s160rg\">It looked like Team USA would take a one-point lead into Saturday when Nelly Korda and Lauren Coughlin found the 18th green in regulation, while Carlota Ciganda was wandering off piste down the 1st as part of an ersatz tribute to the more outr\u00e9 work of Severiano Ballesteros and Jordan Spieth. But in the classic matchplay style, Korda and Coughlin missed their birdie putts, while Ciganda got up and down from nowhere to somehow secure a half for Europe. And now here we are \u2026<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-1s160rg\">\u2026 and this is the order in which the Saturday foursomes will go out this morning. Friday was so much fun, and if today is even halfway as entertaining, we\u2019ll be in for a wild and wonderful treat. Good luck confidently predicting the winner of any of these matches, or indeed the whole thing itself. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theguardian.com\/sport\/solheim-cup\" data-link-name=\"in body link\" data-component=\"auto-linked-tag\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Solheim Cup<\/a> fever is raging; won\u2019t somebody please call Dr Golf?!
