The Arnold Palmer Cup will begin Friday with 12 mixed fourball matches.

The opening session will begin at 8:30 a.m. CT at The Alotian Club in Roland, Ark., with Americans Chandler Phillips and Mariel Galdiano taking on Frida Kinhult and Daviid Nyfjall, who was a last-minute replacement for Jovan Rebula.

“The first match is always important to get off to a good start, and we have Chandler, who is a three-year veteran of the event, and Mariel, who is a returning member of the team,” said Alabama women’s coach Mic Potter, who is one of two U.S. captains along with Vanderbilt men’s coach Scott Limbaugh. “We really wanted to make sure we got them out early to lead us off and get us off to a good start.”

Just one session will be played Friday. Two sessions will take place Saturday, 12 mixed foursomes matches in the morning and 12 foursomes matches in the afternoon. The Palmer Cup will conclude with 24 singles matches on Sunday.

The U.S. has won two straight Palmer Cups and leads the all-time series, 12-9-1.
