Only these few golfers will decide whether Europe or the United States will hold the Cup in three days, based on their abilities.

Allisen Corpuz joins proves that’s she’s nothing but class with her latest move

For the four-ball match on Friday, the rookie, Allisen Corpuz, was paired with Jennifer Kupcho and faced off against Emily Kristine Pedersen and Maja Stark. While all seemed to be going well for Team USA, on the 12th hole, Pedersen pulled off a feat so amazing that the whole crowd got riled up, including Team USA!

Trailing 1-down to Team USA, Pedersen shot an ace on the 12th hole. With that remarkable strike, she holed only the second hole-in-one in the history of the Solheim Cup. Her ace also evened out the lead Kupcho and Corpuz had taken; however, the latter was nothing but graceful on the course.

With this small gesture, Corpuz made sure the celebration of the master stroke was more important than their rivalry. And another US team member’s relaxed demeanor on the course made the competition more relaxed.
