Pettersen, the world No.8 and highest-ranked European player in the women's golf rankings, sparked controversy during the Solheim Cup Sunday after refusing to concede a putt on the 17th hole of the final fourballs match.
American Alison Lee missed a putt for birdie and then scooped the ball up with her putter believing Pettersen and her teammate Charley Hull, who had started walking towards the 18th tee, had conceded the putt.
Pettersen appealed to the match referee saying she hadn't conceded the putt because it was more than three feet. The claim drew widespread criticism but under the rules the hole was awarded to Europe.
