The Cup was played 15–18 October at the Old Course at St Andrews in Scotland.

The English team of David Gilford, Steven Richardson, and Jamie Spence beat the Scottish team of Gordon Brand Jnr, Sandy Lyle, and Colin Montgomerie in the final.

After three rounds of round-robin play, the top team in each group advanced to a single elimination playoff.

Tied matches were extended to a sudden-death playoff only if they affected the outcome between the two teams.

The tie-breaker for ties within a group was based on the total team score.
