In a significant move for women's golf, England Golf has launched a campaign to secure the Solheim Cup for 2030, aiming to host the prestigious event for the first time on English soil. The organization is actively seeking government backing to facilitate this ambitious bid.
The Grove in Hertfordshire has been identified as a potential venue, with its world-class facilities and history of hosting major golf events. The Solheim Cup, contested biennially between the best female golfers from Europe and the United States, represents a unique opportunity to showcase women's golf in England.
England Golf's initiative comes at a time when interest in women's sports is surging, and the organization believes that hosting the Solheim Cup could inspire a new generation of female golfers. The bid is not without challenges, but the potential benefits for the sport and local communities are significant.
