The 2013 Solheim Cup is nearly upon us, as Team USA and Europe prepare to go to battle in the biennial event. With players competing year round for a spot in the prestigious outing, many will evaluate their ability to contribute by citing their current ranking in the Solheim Cup standings.

The question is, which players will outperform their current placement once the event commences?

Players have been earning points towards the 2013 Solheim Cup since the CN Canadian Women's Open held on Aug. 25, 2011. For Team USA, the top eight players in the rankings earn automatic bids, with two players from the LPGA Rolex Rankings and two captain picks also earning places.

Here's who will outclass their current seeding.

 

Brittany Lincicome



LPGA Rank: No. 44

Solheim Cup Rank: No. 5 (269)

Solheim Cup Appearance: 4th (4-6-1)

 

When you evaluate Brittany Lincicome's Solheim Cup resume, the first thing that jumps off of the page is that this is her fourth appearance. The second number that may catch your eye is her record of 4-6-1 at the event.

Just don't read too much into the latter statistic.

Lincicome was 0-2-1 in 2007, but went 2-2-0 in both 2009 and 2011. She was also a two-time member of the Junior Solheim Cup squad, which gives her a grand total of five events experience entering this year's clash.

Something tells us this will be the year she dominates.

Lincicome was 2-1-0 prior to her singles match against Christel Boeljon in 2011, but fell short of expectations on that stage. This was just one year removed from her win over Sophie Gustafson, which was evidence enough to show that she can win when it matters.

Expectations are high in 2013 and we suspect she'll break out and exceed her already solid ranking of No. 5 for Team USA.
