The U.S. team rolled to an impressive 7 1/2 points on the second day of the inaugural Concession Cup and take a commanding 12-6 lead into Saturday's final day of action. In Fourball play, the U.S. received victories from Todd White and Nathan Smith, Tim Jackson and Scott Harvey, George Zahringer and Vinny Giles, Chip Lutz and Pat Tallent, Jim Holtgrieve and Randy Lewis and Mike McCoy and Gene Elliot. In the final match of the day, Doug Hanzel and Paul Simson halved. The win broke a tie between the teams from the U.S. and Great Britain & Ireland following Thursday's opening day of play. All hands will be on deck Saturday as singles matches tee off in the Ryder Cup-style team competition.

The contest is staged in the image and likeness of other amateur team match-play competitions with the focus directed toward celebrating amateur golf and the spirit of international competition. In honor of two of the greatest amateur competitors in the history of the game, a trophy has been commissioned in the names of United States amateur, Bill Campbell and British Amateur, Sir Michael Bonallack – the Campbell/Bonallack trophy will be presented to the winning team at the conclusion of the matches.
