It’s not the most famous golf competition. And, it is the ladies of the LPGA and not Tiger and the PGA men. That just makes it a little more relaxed and a lot more fun.

The Solheim Cup is being competed for August 17 – 23, 2009, at Rich Harvest Farms in Sugar Grove, Illinois.

One of the neat things about the Cup is the number of team members who are posting on Twitter. And, putting candid photos up on TwitPic. Here is a sample. Click on a thumbnail below for a larger photo.
