| Europe wins the Palmer Cup | |||||
The 2006 Palmer Cup was held on 29–30 June 2006 at Prestwick Golf Club in Prestwick, South Ayrshire, Scotland. Europe won 19½–4½.
On Thursday, there were four matches of four-ball in the morning, followed by eight singles matches in the afternoon. Four foursomes matches were played on the Friday morning with a further eight singles 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, each side earned half a point toward their team total. The team that accumulated at least 12½ points won the competition.
Eight college golfers from Europe and the United States participated in the event.
The Michael Carter Award winners were Steve Lewton and Clay Ogden.
