Kang won three of her four games during her rookie appearance in the 2017 competition at Des Moines, in which America conducted out 16.5-11.5 winners, with the American now looking to impress on away soil.
With Kang relishing the opportunity to go with Europe and experience the atmosphere that is Scottish team USA arrive at Gleneagles bidding for a third consecutive victory from the biennial competition.
“Since we are in Scotland, I do not understand what I’m going to listen to,” Kang said. “I hear that I’m likely to be booed at a stage, so put it on.
“I’d rather hear loud booing at that point. So I am excited, I want to listen to them, although I have them feel as loudly as they can, whoever they would like to cheer for.
“At the end of the day that I do not really hear what they say, ” I simply find the people and the sounds. So I am just excited to hear.
“I’m definitely going to embrace the first tee. I get an opportunity to hit on it, I’m likely to embrace. I’m likely to adopt the lovers out there for the whole golf course, whenever I get to perform ”
Morgan Pressel is the player in the American side, with played with the 31-year-old keen to help the team’s younger members, three winning Solheim Cup teams during her five appearances.
“Whether you are a veteran, a beginner or anywhere in the middle, when you walk through that tunnel out to the first tee shirt and listen to all of the chanting and all the excitement, there is no experience like that,” Pressel said.
“Nerves are going to be there, but you know what to expect. You understand how to prepare for it emotionally. The concept that we’ve contributed to the group is embrace it.
“Know that it’s coming and have fun with this, because in the end of the day this is a wonderful exhibition plus a fantastic show of golfing.”
