The final score was 28-20. Although tied at 12-12 following team play on Saturday, the Americans dominated the singles on Sunday and won back the Cup they lost last year at Hermitage Golf Course in Nashville, TN. In the marquee singles match, American Juli Inkster defeated Laura Davies 67-68. Interesting note: LPGA Hall of Famer Pat Bradley halved her match with Alison Nicholas, thus earning the Americans one point, on the same day her nephew Keegan lost his Ryder Cup singles match in Scotland.
