Shutout Rounds

2024 2 Foursomes INT, 5-0 The Royal Montreal GC, Montreal, Quebec, Canada
2024 1 Four-ball US, 5-0 The Royal Montreal GC, Montreal, Quebec, Canada
2007 3 Foursomes US, 5-0 The Royal Montreal GC, Montreal, Quebec, Canada
2003 4 Four-ball INT, 5-0 The Links at Fancourt, George, South Africa
2000 1 Foursomes US, 5-0 Robert Trent Jones GC, Prince William County, VA, USA
1994 1 Four-ball US, 5-0 Robert Trent Jones GC, Prince William County, VA, USA

All matches are worth one point, for a total of 30 points. There are no playoffs, with each side receiving a half point if a match is tied after 18 holes. In a change inspired by the events of the 2003 Presidents Cup, if the match is deadlocked at the end of Singles play, the competition will be deemed a tie and the teams will share the Presidents Cup.
