This year’s Solheim Cup had a mournful end for the USA veterans. The squad was already facing a drought for the past four years, and as they failed to clinch the cup this year, the Americans entered into their hat-trick year of patriotic drought. But despite the outcome, the American soldiers fought till their last breath, and it was quite evident on the field. 

Now, days after the international event is over, the team’s ‘Unnie’ eyes are set on a new target. But with the prestigious tournament still years away, is she planning on a comeback straight away?

As far as the zeal of the American side is concerned, they just didn’t give up the fight for the Solheim Cup. The score at the end of the event was a tie at 14-14 but as tradition followed, the past winner, Europe, retained the cup.

Danielle Kang, who is one of the senior-most golfers on the USA team, greatly contributed to the competition. The big sister ‘Unnie’ of the squad even got a shout-out from her fellow teammates like Andrea Lee, given that Danielle posted a heart-touching picture that captured the attention of many. 

Now days after her Spanish ventures are over, she looks forward to her next goal. As Kang joined in a press conference, she made a candid disclosure. She said, “I know that sports is supposed to give you hope, so hopefully I’m here four years later, I look much stronger on the board, but we’re all going to come together and play well. There are some great players and a lot of turnovers now, and just going to do my best and play the best that I can.” 

Hence, it’s evident that Kang is focusing on her growth in the game. Given, that the golfer participated in the the Solheim Cup, let’s take an analysis of her performance.
