The 2nd Curtis Cup Match was played on September 27 and 28, 1934 at the Chevy Chase Club in Chevy Chase, Maryland. The United States won 6 to 2.[1]
The contest was played over two days, with three foursomes on the first day and six singles matches on the second day, a total of 9 points. Matches were over 18 holes.
Each of the 9 matches was worth one point in the larger team competition. If a match was all square after the 18th hole extra holes were not played. Rather, each side earned a point toward their team total. The team that accumulated at least 5 points won the competition.
Eight players for the USA and for Great Britain & Ireland participated in the event. The American's had a non-playing captain, Glenna Collett-Vare, while Britain's captain, Doris Chambers, was one of the team.
