Defending President's Cup champions Team USA faced the new and improved Team Europe. After the strokeplay on holes 1-9 Team USA ended up leading with the total of 19 points against Team Europes 9 points.
Team USA kept their lead till the end all though team Europe fought back as Swedens Markus Källstrom defeated the USA captain David Feldberg and the 12 time world champion Ken Climo tied with Finlands Timo Pursio. USA masters lost against Hans Tegebäck and Christer Köhler but again the US women came through taking the important points as Valarie Jenkins won Anne Matilainen and Carrie Berlogar got the needed tie for the win against Birgitta Lagerholm.
Total score after 18 holes: Team USA 28, Team Europe 24. The Cup stays with team USA and travels across the Atlantic Ocean to The United States with Carrie Berlogar.
