European stalwart Suzann Pettersen, the subject of most of the US anger on a stormy final day of the Solheim Cup, had no regrets over her part in a controversial incident on Sunday.
The Americans were bitterly disappointed when Alison Lee and Brittany Lincicome lost to Pettersen and Charley Hull by two holes in the morning fourballs carried over from Saturday.
With the fourball match all square, rookie Lee mistakenly believed her 16-inch putt at the 17th had been conceded by her opponents and picked up the ball, leaving the referee no choice but to award the hole to the Europeans.
