Best wishes.

I am going myself :) Actually I decided to try to train properly for the event.
1 game every day at the same time limits, with review. How long will I keep that up for :)

The AGA website claims the representative is the top placing American citizen in that year's US Open. Of course that person must want to compete--it looks they've had to go down a few places in the past. But that would suggest Jie Liang or Curtis Tang (I think Eric Lui is ineligible as the previous WAGC representative).

Anyway, glad to see there's such strong reps from Ukraine and Russia. Perhaps we'll see them crack the top four.
