2007 Royal Trophy Explained
The 2007 Royal Trophy was the second edition of the Royal Trophy, a team golf event contested between teams representing Asia and Europe. It was held from 12 - 14 January at the Amata Spring Country Club in Thailand. Europe retained the trophy with an emphatic 12½ - 3½ victory, prompting suggestions that it might be desirable to even up the contest by having Europe play a combined team representing Asia and Australasia.[1]
