DUNSANY, Ireland (AP) — Suzann Pettersen sank an eight-foot putt on the last hole to give Europe a win in the final foursome and even the score at 2-2 against the United States after the opening session of the Solheim Cup.

The U.S. had trailed in three of the four matches on a windy morning at the Killeen Castle course, but took a 2-1 lead after Paula Creamer and Brittany Lincicome came back from two down with four holes to play to beat Karen Stupples and Melissa Reid.

Pettersen and Sophie Gustafson were all square with Americans Juli Inkster and Brittany Lang going into the 18th hole. After Inkster missed a 10-foot birdie putt, the second-ranked Pettersen made hers for Europe to pull even.
