Catriona Matthew captains Team Europe again, with Pat Hurst leading the home side. 

Georgia Hall and captain's pick Celine Boutier were unstoppable for Europe two years ago, and return alongside Solheim Cup stalwarts Charley Hull and Anna Nordqvist. 2020 British Open winner Sophia Popov and 2021 LPGA Mediheal Championship and Gant Ladies' Open champ Matilda Castren are amongst the debutants. 

The biggest weapon at Hurst's disposal is, of course, world No. 1 Nelly Korda, one of eight players who also represented Team USA two years ago. She's once again joined by her sister Jessica, as well as Lexi Thompson, Danelle Kang, Ally Ewing, Lizette Salas, Megan Khang and Brittany Altomare.

Rising stars Jennifer Kupcho, Mina Harigae and Yealimi Noh are the three rookies, while LPGA Drive On Championship winner Austin Ernst is back in the team after missing out in 2019.

Solheim Cup live stream: how to watch for FREE and without cable in the US

In the US, coverage of the Solheim Cup is split between NBC and the Golf Channel, with the action bouncing between both channels constantly over the course of the tournament.

If you've got it on cable, simply head to the <a href="https://stream.golfchannel.com/golf" data-link-merchant="stream.golfchannel.com"" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">Golf Channel website and log in with your cable credentials to stream its coverage online.

How to watch Solheim Cup online without cable

Sling TV is perhaps the best value cord-cutting service out there right now. Its Sling Blue plan hosts NBC and the <a href="https://sling-tv.pxf.io/c/221109/1132376/14334?subId1=hawk-custom-tracking&sharedId=hawk&u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.sling.com%2F" data-link-merchant="sling.com"" data-link-merchant="stream.golfchannel.com"" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">first month currently costs a mere $10 (down from the standard $35), while an $11 Sports Extra add-on nets you the extra Golf Channel coverage as well.

Another great option if all you're after this week is the golf is <a href="https://geni.us/YkQAuWd" data-link-merchant="geni.us"" data-link-merchant="sling.com"" data-link-merchant="stream.golfchannel.com"" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">FuboTV, as it includes both the Golf Channel and NBC in its Starter plan. 

At $65 per month, it's pricier than Sling but still a reasonable alternative to traditional cable with the flexibility to cancel at any point - and if you haven't had Fubo before, <a href="https://geni.us/YkQAuWd" data-link-merchant="geni.us"" data-link-merchant="geni.us"" data-link-merchant="sling.com"" data-link-merchant="stream.golfchannel.com"" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">you can take advantage of its FREE TRIAL and watch the Solheim Cup 2021 without paying a penny, if that's how you choose to play it.
