Шаблон:Use mdy dates Шаблон:Infobox team golf tournament The 1936 Walker Cup, the 9th Walker Cup Match, was played on September 2 and 3, 1936, at Pine Valley Golf Club, Pine Valley, New Jersey. The United States won by 9 matches to 0 with 3 matches halved.[1][2]
Format
Four 36-hole matches of foursomes were played on Wednesday and eight singles matches on Thursday. Each of the 12 matches was worth one point in the larger team competition. If a match was all square after the 36th 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.
Teams
The United States team of 11 was announced in April. Francis Ouimet was the captain and was given the option of whether to play himself or not.[3] The day before the match started he announced that he had decided not to play, to give the younger players a chance and that all the other 10 members of the team would play in either the foursomes or the singles.[4] Six members of the Great Britain and Ireland team were announced in late May, before the Amateur Championship. These were William Tweddell, the captain, Bentley, Langley, Lucas, McLean and Thomson.[5] The remaining four were announced in early June.[6] Tweddell did not select himself or Laddie Lucas for any of the matches. Lucas had recently had an attack of tonsilitis.[7]
