Since the event’s debut in 1990, golf fans have seen an array of Solheim Cup uniforms.
The Americans are usually rocking some display of red, white and blue (of course with a little pink and some stars and stripes) while the Europeans are normally in blue and yellow (with their own fair share of wild accent colors). Even for the 1990s the fashion and style for some of the team uniforms is quite out there.
As the 2023 Solheim Cup in Spain approaches, take a scroll through some of the best (and worst) team uniforms in the competition’s 33-year history.
