Suzann Pettersen's professional walk-off was among golf's most memorable, as she sank the winning putt in the 2019 Solheim Cup and then declared her playing career over.
Pettersen returned to be a vice captain on the Catriona Matthew's victorious team at Inverness this year and will next lead the squad herself in Spain.
The 40-year-old Norwegian was announced on Monday as the 2023 European Solheim Cup captain. The biennial event is scheduled to take place at Finca Cortesín in Andalucía, Spain, Sept. 22-24.
“This is the biggest honor of my career,” Pettersen said.
