    Only three more tournaments remain for the U.S. players to get themselves into position to qualify for the 2013 Solheim Cup, which will be played this year at the Colorado Club in Parker, Colorado. Players started accumulating points at the completion of the last Solheim Cup, in 2011.

    The United States has changed the qualifications for entry. In previous years it was the top ten players who accumulated the most points, and then two captain's picks. They have now changed that to the top eight players off the points list, the 2 highest Rolex ranked players not already in, and 2 captain's picks.

    Points are accumulated the following way:
    (From the first event after the previous Solheim Cup match in 2011 through the end of the 2012 season)
    Winner - 40 points, 2nd - 20 points, 3rd - 18 points, 4th - 17 points, all the way down to 20th - 2 points.
    (The 2013 season tournaments, leading up to the Solheim match)
    Winner - 60 points, 2nd - 30 points, 3rd - 28.5 points, 4th - 27 points, 5th - 25.5 points, all the way down to a 20th place finish worth 3 points.
    The reason for the increased points for the last part of the term is to give an advantage to the players who are hot going into the match.
    Points are doubled for major championships.

    With many players fighting to get into a position to make the team, lets look at where they stand.

    I'm pretty sure the Solheim Cup is the one that Karsten drank out of prior to inventing the Ping Eye 2 irons. It's similar to that Indiana Jones movie where the one dude drinks from the wrong cup and turns to dust but Indiana chooses the right one and saves his father, played by Sean Connery.

    The Solheim Cup is very powerful. It was drunk from prior to inventing the greatest irons of all time. I have long searched for its hiding place.

    And you've been drinking from the Koolaid Cup ever since.
