Format

On Friday, there were five matches of foursomes in the morning, followed by five four-ball matches in the afternoon. Ten singles matches were played on Saturday, and ten more on Sunday. In all, 30 matches were played.

Each of the 30 matches was worth one point in the larger team competition. If a match was all square after the 18th hole, each side earned half a point toward their team total. The team that accumulated at least 15½ points won the competition.

Teams

Ten college golfers from the United States and Europe participated in the event plus a non-playing head coach and assistant coach for each team.

Michael Carter award

The Michael Carter Award winners were Hunter Stewart and Matthias Schwab.
