The U.S. Solheim Cup team is following the lead of the world No. 1. Nelly Korda, sent out first in both of her matches Friday, put the hammer down in the afternoon, recording four birdies and two eagles to partner with Megan Khang and deliver a convincing 6-and-4 victory that helped set the tone for the Americans during an afternoon of blowouts.

World No. 1 Nelly Korda will be tasked with leading Team USA into this Solheim Cup. Korda, who won six straight tournaments earlier this year including the first major of the season, will team up with Allisen Corpuz in the first foursome match on Friday.
