Solheim Cup 2024: Key TV times and ways to watch live on Sky Sports as Team USA host Team Europe
Team Europe chase more history this week as they look to retain their Solheim Cup title against the United States, with extended coverage live on Sky Sports.
Suzann Pettersen’s side are bidding to become the first team in Solheim Cup history to hold the trophy in four consecutive editions of the biennial contest, having snatched a dramatic 14-14 tie in Spain last September.
Team Europe head into the match as slight underdogs against Stacy Lewis’ United States side, who boast the world’s top two players, but arrive having won the last match on American soil back in 2021.
Sky Sports is once again the home of the Solheim Cup, with all the action from Virginia on Sky Sports Golf and live coverage from every tournament day, plus a host of bonus programming to enjoy.
