Great Britain and Ireland took an 8–3 lead after the first day after winning six of the singles matches.[1][2] They shared the second day foursomes and needed just two win in the singles. Gordon Cosh won his match but it seemed that the other seven matches would be lost. However Clive Clark, two down with three to play, halved his match. The overall match was tied at 11 each with the United States retaining the Cup, having won in 1963.[3]Joe Carr, the Great Britain and Ireland playing captain, did not select himself for any of the matches.
The format for play on Friday and Saturday 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 was worth one point in the larger team competition. If a match was all square after the 18th hole extra holes were not played. The team with most points won the competition. If the two teams were tied, the previous winner would retain the trophy.
