U.S. dominates GB&I in singles, wins Curtis Cup in Wales
Twenty-three years after her mom, Brenda Corrie Kuehn, captured the winning point for Team USA in the Curtis Cup, Rachel Kuehn did the same on Saturday in Wales.
The younger Kuehn defeated Scotland's Louise Duncan, 2 and 1, to give the U.S. the required points to win the cup over Great Britain and Ireland for the first time on foreign soil since 2008 in St. Andrews. The Americans ultimately won the 41st edition of the competition, 12 1/2 to 7 1/2, at Conwy Golf Club.
GB&I led the three-day event by three points after Day 1, but the U.S. turned the tables on Day 2 and evened the matches going into the eight singles. It was there that the U.S. dominated, winning six matches and 6 1/2 points.
