Well done Team USA for playing amazing golf as well as for being such gracious losers. At one stage of the afternoon it looked as tho they were going to push Team Europe to the wire but on the day the Europeans putted better. Catriona Matthew holed the winning putt for Europe.

:bravo: :cheer: :cheer: :cheer: :trophy:
