Creamer, Pressel not on list for Inkster's Solheim gathering
Captain Juli Inkster will get an early glimpse of what could be a different looking U.S. Solheim Cup team when she leads prospective members in their first official team gathering this weekend in Houston.The big surprises?Veterans Paula Creamer and Morgan Pressel arent among the invitees.Inkster invited 16 players to the first team gathering at Bluejack National Saturday and Sunday, a group that includes the top 14 in U.S. Solheim Cup points, based on the standings at the conclusion of the ANA Inspiration.Inkster also invited rookie Nelly Korda and veteran Beth Allen.The LPGAs Volunteers of America Texas Shootout is in Irving, Texas, next week.We could have a little bit different team this year, Inkster told GolfChannel.com. We could have some rookies, and I want to try to get them ready to go. I wanted to bring us together and go over what were working on.The Solheim Cup is just four months away, with the Americans scheduled to meet Europe Aug. 18-20 at Des Moines Golf and Country Club in Iowa. There are still 14 qualifying events, three of them major championships with double points, before the American team is finalized at the conclusion of the Ricoh Womens British Open two weeks before the Solheim Cup.We still have a ton of tournaments, Inkster said. There is going to be a lot of shifting in points. You cant really predict who is going to be on the team. I just wanted a wide variety of people there. So, thats kind of the way it worked out.If the team were finalized today, there would be intense competition for Inksters two captains picks. Creamer, Pressel, Angela Stanford, Michelle Wie, Lizette Salas and Christina Kim are among Solheim Cup veterans who would require a pick.Creamer is currently 21st in the U.S. Solheim Cup standings, Pressel is 22nd. The top eight in the standings after the Ricoh Womens British Open will make the team, as will the top two Americans in the Rolex Womens World Rankings who arent already qualified on points.Creamer has played in the last six Solheim Cups and has a 14-8-5 record. Pressel has played in the last five Solheim Cups and has a 10-7-2 record.Its no secret, Paula and Morgan are on the outside right now, Inkster said. Theyve been mainstays on the Solheim Cup team, very good mainstays. The problem is its so hard just to play golf and not worry about points, but I know they are trying.For the team, I have to take the 12 best players.Inkster said Creamer and Pressel have plenty of time to earn their way.They dont really need to make the team [on points], Inkster said. I just need to see them playing some good golf. It depends on how many rookies I have. Or, if we have a veteran team, can I bring some rookies on? So, its really how the team shakes out. Believe me, I know where Morgan and Paula are, and they know where they are.Inkster said the weekend at Bluejack will be focused on team bonding.Its not really about golf, its more about being together, Inkster said. We are going to do some fishing and a couple other activities. We are going to play some golf, very minimal golf. Its not like it is a golf-specific outing. We are going to have a couple dinners and just kind of hang out and be together.If the team were finalized today, Austin Ernst and Mo Martin would make the American team for the first time.U.S. points standings1 Lexi Thompson, 484.52 Stacy Lewis, 3703 Gerina Piller, 3134 Cristie Kerr, 2835 Jessica Korda, 246.56 Brittany Lang, 2207 Austin Ernst, 210.58 Brittany Lincicome, 1779 Angela Stanford, 16310 Mo Martin, 155.511 Danielle Kang, 145.512 Alison Lee, 12413 Lizette Salas, 117.514 Michelle Wie, 11515 Kim Kaufman, 97NOTE:Points are awarded to top 20 finishers in LPGA events, with first place earning 60 points, second place getting 30, third place taking 28.5 and on down to three points for 20th place.

LEXI THOMPSON: I would say I mainly worked a lot on short game. I chipped and putted for at least two to three hours a day, just mainly trying to improve that to where I didn't put so much pressure on my ball striking and knowing I have to hit greens. That way, if I do miss greens, I can fall back on my short game.
