The miracle of Nassau never happened. The Europeans needed a very strong day to make up their two-point deficit and thus retain their title. Ultimately, it was the United States that lifted a trophy that had eluded them since 2018 (the 2021 edition having been canceled).

Despite Hugo Le Goff's impressive victory (4&3) early in the day against one of the greatest stars of American golf, Miles Russell, the home team quickly widened the gap. Alice Kong, the youngest player in the event, had the cards in hand to win her first point. She collapsed late in the round, losing three of the last four holes.
Louise Uma Landgraf (4&3) and Callixte Alzas (3&2) also struggled on this final day. Conversely, Oscar Couilleau (7&6), Sara Brentcheneff (5&4) and the Ukrainian Lev Grinberg (4&3) crushed their opponents of the day. In the end, the Americans won 17.5 to 12.5.

The Rules of Golf are a set of standards and procedures by which the sport of golf should be played. They are jointly written and administered by the Royal & Ancient Golf Club of St. Andrews, the governing body of golf worldwide, except in the United States and Mexico, which are governed by the United States Golf Association. An expert committee composed of members of the R&A and the USGA oversees and refines the rules every four years. The latest revision took effect on January 1, 2016. Amendments to the Rules of Golf are generally divided into two main categories: those that improve understanding and those that reduce penalties in certain cases to ensure balance. The rulebook, entitled "Rules of Golf," is published regularly and also includes rules governing amateur status. In Italy, the Italian Golf Federation is responsible for overseeing competitions by enforcing the rules issued by the R&A, ensuring that these rules are observed by clubs, associations, and their members, and managing the resulting sporting justice, protecting their interests abroad.
