The 1965 Walker Cup, the 20th Walker Cup Match, was played on September 3 and 4, 1965, at Baltimore Country Club, Baltimore, Maryland. The event was tied at 11 matches each with 2 matches halved.
Great Britain and Ireland took an 8–3 lead after the first day after winning six of the singles matches.[1][2] They shared the second day foursomes and needed just two win in the singles. Gordon Cosh won his match but it seemed that the other seven matches would be lost. However Clive Clark, two down with three to play, halved his match. The overall match was tied at 11 each with the United States retaining the Cup, having won in 1963.[3] Joe Carr, the Great Britain and Ireland playing captain, did not select himself for any of the matches.
