Leona Maguire and Matilda Castren will become the first Irish and Finnish women golfers to play in the Solheim Cup between holders Europe and the United States after being named as two of captain Catriona Matthew's wild card picks.

Maguire and Castren will line up alongside the likes of Sunday's Women's Open champion Anna Nordqvist -- her seventh successive Solheim Cup appearance -- in the biennial event that takes place at the Inverness course in Toledo, Ohio, from September 4-6.
