Europe has won the Sir Michael Bonallack Trophy after beating their Asian-Pacific rivals by a margin of 21.5 to 10.5 at the Monte Rei Golf Country Club in Portugal.
The Asia-Pacific team needed to win 10 of the 12 singles matches on the final day to claim the biennial trophy.
Their faint hopes were kept alive early on when they lead in nine of the 12 matches after 14 holes through the final. But the Europeans always held the advantage and fought back well, winning the singles by a margin of 8-4 margin to secure a victory by 11 points.
New Zealand's Mathew Perry, who had been a standout all week for the Asia-Pacific team, had a half which could have been a win as he lipped out for eagle on the last for the point.
He shared the honours against Germany's Maritz Lampart as the pair was six under for the round.
