Curtis Cup 2026: Catriona Matthew remains GB&I captain

Catriona Matthew will captain Great Britain & Ireland again in the 2026 Curtis Cup against the United States at Bel-Air Country Club in Los Angeles.

Matthew led the side to a thrilling 10½-9½ win over the US at Sunningdale in September – GB&I’s first Curtis Cup triumph since 2016.

The two-time Solheim Cup-winning captain will seek back-to-back victories when the 44th edition of the event is held from 12-14 June 2026.

The Scot, who as a player won the Curtis Cup in 1992 and helped retain it in 1994, succeeded Elaine Ratcliffe in the role before this year’s match.

“The 2024 victory is right up there with anything I’ve achieved, including winning the Solheim Cup as a player and captain,” said Matthew, who won one major title, the 2009 Women’s British Open.

“It’s always harder to win away from home and I’m excited for the opportunity. It is my job to again build a high-performing and motivated team who will aim to retain the trophy.”
