One of the key objectives of the Solheim Cup was to draw the eyes of the world to women's golf.

It would be fair to say, that target has been achieved as tens of millions of people worldwide watched on as Suzann Pettersen drained that final, clinching putt.

As has become common during mammoth sporting occasions, the world took to social media to pore over the drama and congratulate the success of the 2019 Solheim Cup.

We've curated some of the most eye-catching posts...

Watching #SolheimCup highlights knowing the result and still can’t believe it happened... such tiny margins and so many brilliant shots all round. What a fantastic showcase for women’s golf.

We can now add the #SolheimCup to this remarkable sporting summer. Brilliant brilliant European performance. Last putt on the last green from Pettersen wins it.
