Notes: Team USA put this one away early by winning eight of the 10 matches played on Day 1. For Team USA, William C. Campbell became the first golfer in Walker Cup history to go 4-0-0 in one tournament.

GB&I's Joe Carr was the playing captain, and this was his 10th and final time playing in a Walker Cup. That remains today the record for most Walker Cup playing appearances. It was 20 years after Carr's first time playing for GB&I in the 1947 Walker Cup, and that gap is also a record for the GB&I team.
