The preliminary Round Robin were won by Moss, whereas Quinn and Howard dropped. The sixty-four board semi-finals were narrowly won by Goldberg over Moss (117-109) and Narasimhan over Baker (164-157).

The Usa1 120 board final was won by Narasimhan over Moss (212-198). Congratulations to the winners!

The Trials continued to select USA2. In semi-final Moss defeated Baker (227-169), getting the final against Goldberg and winning it by 240-150, thus revenging for the loss of three days before. Congratulations to Moss as well, but also bravo to Goldberg, maybe not much lucky this time.
