Each team consisted of six players, playing two rounds of opening stroke-play qualifying competition over two days, counting the five best scores each day for each team.

Team Scotland won the opening 36-hole qualifying competition, with a 32-under-par score of 688, six strokes ahead of Sweden.

There was no official award for the lowest individual scores, but individual leaders were Pádraig Harrington, Ireland and Gordon Sherry, Scotland, each with a 9-under-par score of 135, one stroke ahead of nearest competitors.

The eight best teams formed flight A, in knock-out match-play over the next three days. The teams were seeded based on their positions after the stroke play. The first placed team were drawn to play the quarter final against the eight placed team, the second against the seventh, the third against the sixth and the fourth against the fifth. Teams were allowed to use six players during the team matches, selecting four of them in the two morning foursome games and five players in to the afternoon single games. Games all square at the 18th hole were declared halved, if the team match was already decided.

The eight teams placed 9–16 in the qualification stroke-play formed flight B and the four teams placed 16–20 formed flight C, to play similar knock-out play, with one foursome game and four single games, to decide their final positions.

Team Scotland won the gold medal, earning their fourth title, beating defending champions team England in the final 6–1.

Team Sweden earned the bronze on third place, after beating France 4.5–2.5 in the bronze match.
