Carlota Ciganda is the only Spanish representative in the European team that will compete in the 2024 Solheim Cup, the epic duel against an American team that in this 2024 edition takes place on the Robert Trent Jones course, in the town of Gainesville (Virginia), from September 13 to 15.

The Navarrese golfer, a key player in retaining the Solheim Cup trophy held at Finca Cortesín in 2023, repeats the experience, adding what will be her seventh consecutive appearance in this important competition.

Carlota Ciganda qualified automatically for the 2024 Solheim Cup based on the World Ranking, a criterion that also benefited the Frenchwoman Celine Boutier, the first in this sense, with experience in the three previous Solheim Cups, followed by the Swedes Maja Stark and Linn Grant, who will participate for the second time in the competition after debuting at Finca Cortesín in 2023.

Ireland's Leona Maguire will play for the third consecutive time, while Sweden's Madelene Sagström, who completes the sextet of players directly qualified based on the World Ranking, will do so for the fourth time.

Two other players, England's Charley Hull and Germany's Esther Henseleit, earned their place on the European team through the LET Solheim Cup Ranking.

Finally, the captain of the European team, Suzzan Pettersen, announced her four personal choices to complete the squad: England's Georgia Hall, Sweden's Anna Nordqvist, Denmark's Emily Kristine Pedersen, and Switzerland's Albane Valenzuela.

The European team is aiming for its fourth consecutive victory against the United States after the wins in 2019, 2021 and the outcome that allowed them to retain the trophy in 2023 at Finca Cortesín, with a very active participation from Carlota Ciganda.
