Inkster closes door on Solheim return: 'I'm not even getting on the call'

GLENEAGLES, Scotland – With the Americans’ one-point loss to Europe on Sunday at Gleneagles, Juli Inkster fell short of a Solheim Cup-record third straight victory as captain.

Inkster will likely end up just shy of another record, too.

After her team’s narrow defeat, Inkster was asked if she’d return to lead the U.S. team in two years at Inverness Club in Toledo, Ohio, and in the process join Europe’s Mickey Walker as the only four-time Solheim Cup captains.

“No. No. No,” Inkster said, emphatically. “I'm not even getting on the call.”

Inkster, 59, has left quite the mark on Team USA.
