Coughlin, with 3.5 points, equals the most ever by a rookie in the event, tying the likes of Paula Creamer and Michelle Wie.
I don't knlw if I mentioned this, but the I know Lauren. When the was a kid I even played a round or two of golf with her at Greenbrier Country Club in Chesapeake. She could hit the ball solidly even back then, but she was a terrible putter.
She has done a lot of work on her short game and is still an amazing ballstriker. She has turned into a force to be reckoned with! I wish she had made her birdie putt at 18 to clinch the Cup for the Americans, but her coming back from three holes down by birdieing 4 of the last 7 holes gave us a huge half-point, and secured her 3-0-1 record in her first Solheim Cup.
