Golf Monthly talks to Carin Koch Solheim Cup captain for 2015 to get her thoughts on whether the europeans can relive the magic of two years ago.

Carin Koch played in four Solheim Cups, forging a successful partnership with Annika Sorenstam and holing the winning putt at Loch Lomond in 2000.

The Swede - who turned professional in 2000 - has won on both the Ladies European Tour and the LPGA Tour.

Koch was announced as 2015 European Solheim Cup captain earlier this year. She acted as a vice-captain for Liselotte Neumann's Solheim Cup-winning team in Colorado in 2013.

In the video, Koch discusses her excitement at becoming Carin Koch Solheim Cup Captain and the challenge of trying to record a third consecutive European Solheim Cup victory.
