2023 Solheim Cup - Wayyyy too Early Team Predictions

[AWinfortheAges]

Team USA

 

- Mina Harigae continues her run and makes the team without the captains pick

- Amy Olson makes her 1st team

- Angel Yin gets back on the team

 

Does Angela Stanford captain or make the team again in her mid 40s?

Can Alison Lee climb all the way back to the team after having had to go back to the Q-Series? Does she have extra motivation to?

I haven't heard anything about Wie-West practicing or rehabing. Is she winding down and preparing to transition?

Team USA needs to blow up the pod system.

In '19 they needed a Lexi whisperer. Now they need a Kang whisperer as well.

 

Team Europe

 

- Albane Valenzuela makes the team

- Azahara Munoz gets back on the team

No 'whisper' of a Creamer resurgence?

I predict all your predictions to be wrong.🤣

Hurst was a terrible captain.

IMO....Stanford could likely be chosen...but I hope not...she has a lousy SC record...besides I don't care much for her.

 

Dottie CHOKIN FREAKIN DOGS Pepper would be an IDEAL SC captain...but will never be chosen...hope I'm wrong.

 

I think Laura Diaz would be a good SC captain....but is missing a major....but then again...Rosie Jones never had a major.

Laura is kinda a SMOKESHOW....so they always get preferential treatment from me.🤣

 

Kerr isn't well liked and I think too selfish....I hope she never becomes a SC captain.....I can't stand her...classic B*TCH.

 

Pressel would make a good SC captain.

 

Bam Bam is too laid back and lazy to be a SC captain.

 

Lang, I think lacks the intensity to be a SC captain.

 

As much as I don't like her...SNaP would be a good captain.

 

Wie and Creamer will be likely captains one day once their family responsibilities become less in the future.

 

I know ya gotta want to do it...kinda surprised Kelly Robbins or Tammie Green were never SC captains.

 

It's a shame Laura Davies is too lazy....she's an ideal Euro captain....and I know she doesn't want to do it FT....but Dame Laura would be great on TV covering the LPGA.

 

In the end...I think it will be Stanford or Pressel next...then SNaP and then Wie or Creamer.

Easier to predict which 2021 SC members will be on the 2023 SC teams

 

My guesstimates:

Yanks

I think it will be like the 2021 team...except for Altomare, Mina...and I hope Salas is off the team (I don't like her)

 

Euros

Again....somewhat the same team as 2021....except Reid is off the team and I hope Popov is off the team...another one I don't like.

I need to wait until the end of 2022 to see the results to see if I would include Bouchard.

 

Ole Ole....I hope the Euros take down the Yanks again.

Considering there are quite a few WRX members in the LPGA folder who don't reside in Merica...kinda surprised we don't have more Euro LUV here.

 

I think the only Yank who wants the Euros to win is @MagicClassic407

How many starts did Creamer have this season? 1? From the looks of her maternity picks, her due date is near. Best wishes to her and her family!

Communication and reporting on the players isn't as good as it was pre Covid era. But I think if anyone knew Paula was getting back into playing form it would have been Morgan. And I can't seem to recall her mentioning Paula from the broadcast booth.

You would be WRONG!  Anyway, my pick for Dancing With the Stars contestant is still Creamer. Will help her to get back into shape post baby.
