NEW YORK: The United States stormed back into contention at the Solheim Cup on Sunday, winning three of the four morning foursomes to move within one point of defending champions Europe.

After being outplayed on Saturday as Europe surged into the lead, the US women rallied superbly on Sunday to come from behind and change the complexion of the contest, leaving Europe with a slender 6 ½ to 5½ point lead heading into the afternoon fourballs.
