Lee's stomach bug disrupts American Solheim Cup plans
ST LEON-ROT, Germany (Reuters) - United States captain Juli Inkster's Solheim Cup plans have been damaged by a stomach bug sustained by Alison Lee and the rookie is struggling so much that her participation in the event is in doubt.
Lee, who secured a place in the team through her world ranking of 27, made her way on to the stage for Thursday's opening ceremony at the women's version of the Ryder Cup despite not having eaten for almost 48 hours.
Inkster had planned to select the 20-year-old for Friday morning's opening foursomes but has instead had to pair Brittany Lincicome with Michelle Wie in match number two against English pair Charley Hull and Melissa Reid.
