The 41st Curtis Cup Match was played from 26–28 August 2021 at Conwy Golf Club near Conwy, Wales. It was originally scheduled for 12–14 June 2020 but was postponed to 2021 in response to the COVID-19 pandemic.
Great Britain & Ireland had the better of the first day and led to by 41⁄2 points to 11⁄2 points at the end of the day. The USA team levelled the match at 6 points a piece by the end of the second day. The third day singles matches were initially very tight but ultimately, most of the matches swung toward the USA team and they secured 61⁄2 points of the 8 available. The USA team retained the Curtis Cup with a total score of 121⁄2 to 71⁄2 for the GB&I team. It was the USA's first away win in the contest since 2008.
Format
The contest was a three-day competition, with three foursomes and three fourball matches on each of the first two days, and eight singles matches on the final day, a total of 20 points.

Rather, each side earned 1⁄2 point toward their team total. The team that accumulated at least 101⁄2 points won the competition. In the event of a tie, the current holder would have retained the Cup.
