To say the last 18 months have been tough for three-time Major champion Anna Nordqvist is an understatement. The 37-year-old Swedish golfer has endured challenges that no one should face at her age, including divorce proceedings and the sudden passing last October of her husband of two years, Kevin McAlpine, the former caddie of Lexi Thompson.
While taking one step at a time to rebuild her life on and off the golf course, Nordqvist remains a fighter with a burning desire to win. She will make her 9th appearance on the European Solheim Cup team at the Robert Trent Jones Golf Club and as an assistant captain for the second time. She will serve alongside Caroline Martens, Dame Laura Davies, and Melissa Reid, under captain Suzann Pettersen, whom she describes as one of her best friends.
