The professionals beat the amateurs 12 points to 8 in the two day event while the senior division was won by the professionals 13 to 7.

The Hudson Cup was created in honor of Robert Hudson a Portland businessman and member of the Portland Golf Club. The event features the top amateurs and professionals from the Pacific Northwest playing in a two-day Ryder Cup-style match.

The 67th edition of the Hudson Cup was played at Broadmoor Golf Club in Seattle along with the 24th Senior Hudson Cup matches.

Each player plays three matches: a Foursome match, Four-Ball Match, and a Singles Match. At the completion of the matches, awards are presented to the outstanding player on each team as decided by votes of the team members. They honor Chuck Congdon, Larry Lamberger, Bob McKendrick and Bill Eggers, four great players with outstanding Hudson Cup records.

The Charles Congdon Award went to Justin Kadin and the Larry Lamberger Award was presented to Tim Feenstra.

In the Senior matches, the Bill Eggers Award was presented to Craig Larson while Steve Stull was given the Bob McKendrick Award.
