BERLIN — Europe captain Carin Koch has named her four wild cards for the Solheim Cup, completing the 12-member team to face the United States in September.

Caroline Hedwall of Sweden, Karine Icher of France, Caroline Masson and Catriona Matthew of Scotland all return to the team, having helped Europe to a record 18-10 victory over the U.S. in Colorado in 2013.

They join Suzann Pettersen of Norway, Gwladys Nocera of France and Charley Hull and Melissa Reid of England, who qualified from the Ladies European Tour points list, and Anna Nordqvist of Sweden, Azahara Munoz of Spain, Sandra Gal of Germany and Carlota Ciganda of Spain, who earned their spots by their world rankings.

The Solheim Cup takes place Sept. 18-20 at the St. Leon-Rot Golf Club near Heidelberg in Germany.
