United States confirm Cup veteran as skipper for 2013

Solheim Cup veteran Meg Mallon will lead the United States side against Europe in Colorado next year. The 48-year-old, who has played on eight Solheim teams, will take over the captaincy when the Europeans defend their title on August 16-18 in 2013. Mallon, who succeeds Rosie Jones, was an assistant to Beth Daniel in 2009 as the United States triumphed at Rich Harvest Farms near Chicago. "It's an absolute honour," Mallon said. "It definitely caps off my career and I look forward to working hard on getting the cup back in US hands."
