Team USA Takes Lead After Day 1 at Solheim Cup

Paula Creamer's 20-foot putt gave Team USA a point lead today in Sugar Grove, Ill. This point is extra special to partner Juli Inkster as it made her the highest scoring US player in its history with 17.5 points. How amazing is that!?

Random Thoughts:

- If the Solheim Cup was 2 weeks ago, I would say that there is no chance that Team Europe would win this year. But, after the PGA championship, when Y.E. Yang snagged the trophy from Tiger at the last minute, I don't think I can say that anymore.

- Who will be Europe's next Annika Sorenstam? Her absence this year weakens the team.

- What happened to Pettersen and Gustafson?
