Walker Cup 1999 11–12 September 1999 Nairn Golf Club Nairn, Scotland GB&I USA Peter McEvoy Danny Yates 15 9 Great Britain & Ireland wins
The 1999 Walker Cup, the 37th Walker Cup Match, was played on 11–12 September 1999, at Nairn Golf Club in Nairn, Scotland. The event was won by Great Britain and Ireland 15 to 9.
Format
The format for play on Saturday and Sunday was the same. There were four matches of foursomes in the morning and eight singles matches in the afternoon. In all, 24 matches were played.
Each of the 24 matches is worth one point in the larger team competition. If a match is all square after the 18th hole extra holes are not played. Rather, each side earns ½ a point toward their team total. The team that accumulates at least 12½ points wins the competition. If the two teams are tied, the previous winner retains the trophy.
Teams
Ten players for the US and Great Britain & Ireland participate in the event plus one non-playing captain for each team.
