The 34th Curtis Cup Match was played on July 29 and 30, 2006 at Bandon Dunes Golf Resort near Bandon, Oregon. The United States won 11½ to 6½. This was the last two-day Curtis Cup. It expanded to three days from 2008.

The contest was a two-day competition, with three foursomes and six singles matches on each day, a total of 18 points.

Each of the 18 matches was worth one point in the larger team competition. If a match was all square after the 18th hole extra holes were not played. Rather, each side earned ½ a point toward their team total. The team that accumulated at least 9½ points won the competition. In the event of a tie, the current holder retained the Cup.

Eight players for the USA and Great Britain & Ireland participated in the event plus one non-playing captain for each team.
