History of Walker Cup

The Walker Cup is named after George Herbert Walker, USGA president in 1920, and began in 1922 at the National Golf Links of America. An unofficial match was played at Royal Liverpool in 1921. From 2026 it moved to even-numbered years to avoid clashing with the World Amateur Team Championships.
