Ciganda sparkles for Europe on dramatic opening day of Solheim Cup

Carlota Ciganda, the 36-year-old Spanish veteran competing in her eighth Solheim Cup, holed a crucial 15-foot putt in the final fourball match of the opening day to secure Europe a half point. Her clutch putt ensured the overall score finished level at 4-4 heading into Saturday's play. The moment echoed her famous putt at Finca Cortesin in 2023, when a similar effort allowed Europe to retain the Solheim Cup trophy with a 14-14 tie.
