Catriona Matthew will captain the European Solheim Cup team again in 2021.
The Ladies European Tour made it official in an announcement Thursday at Gleneagles in Matthew’s native Scotland, where she led the Euros to victory against the Americans in September in one of the most exciting finishes in the history of the biennial international team event.
Matthew, 50, will captain the Euros in a road game this time, with the United States hosting the Solheim Cup at the Inverness Club in Toledo, Ohio.
Matthew added to her already impressive Solheim Cup history as the architect of the European victory in her homeland in September. She took a risk naming Suzann Pettersen one of her captain’s picks, with Pettersen out of tournament play around the birth of her first child for most of the last two years, and yet Pettersen delivered the final victorious stroke for Matthew’s team, holing a birdie putt on the final hole in the final match at Gleneagles.
Matthew becomes the fifth European to captain multiple Solheim Cup teams, the first to do so in back-to-back Solheim Cups since Alison Nicholas in 2009 and ’11. As a player, Matthew was a force, compiling 22 Solheim Cup points, third most in the event’s history behind Laura Davies (25) and Annika Sorenstam (24).
