Leona Maguire, feeling fresh after playing in only two matches at the Solheim Cup, shot 5-under 67 in the opening round of the LPGA’s Kroger Queen City Championship. Maguire is two back of leader Ashleigh Buhai, who opened in 65. Ryder Cup rival Nelly Korda was also among the group tied at 5 under.

Europe's Solheim Cup MVP is only playing one team session this week. Leona Maguire compiled a dominant 7-2-1 record while playing all five sessions over her first two Solheim Cups in 2021 and 2023, but European captain Suzann Pettersen left her on the bench all of Saturday.

The Solheim Cup had not even finished before recriminations around the defeated European team began but Suzann Pettersen, the captain, appears unmoved by any criticism of her leadership. Leona Maguire used the immediate aftermath of a singles win over Ally Ewing to take what was barely even a veiled swipe at Pettersen.

Trevino’s final round 70 for a total of 11-under-par 269 was sufficient for him to leapfrog Beman, winning by one shot, to claim the tournament in its inaugural year for what was his fourth title of the season to add to his victories in the Memphis Classic, The Open and the Greater Hartford Open. The win earned him a pay-day of $30,000.

Golf fans have said they have been left 'shocked' and 'disappointed' after Leona Maguire suffered another Solheim Cup snub that saw her benched for the entirety of Saturday. Despite being a hero for Europe in the past and setting a rookie record in 2021, Maguire has found herself benched for the majority of the competition.

Maguire was front and center the last time Europe played on U.S. soil as she went 4-0-1 in leading her side to victory. She played in all five matches last year, too, going 3-2-0 as Europe retained the cup.
