Once again, from the other side:

Forfeits and Scheduling Problems Mar Day Two of U.S. Open

On day two of the U.S. Open in Chesapeake, Va., several problems occurred in match scheduling. Three forfeits occurred in the matches scheduled for 11 a.m. Gabe Owen was given the gift of advancement in a forfeit by Larry Nevel, as were CJ Wiley and Robert Lewis.

As 1 p.m. rolled around, three matches were still going from the first round, and some of the later rounds had more matches scheduled than there were tables available.

Despite the problems, several exciting matches have gone off. Earl Strickland gave his opponent Edmund Ambros a humbling first-round experience, shutting him out, 11-0. John Schmidt sent Tony T-Rex Chohan stomping off to the one-loss side, and Jeremy Jones beat Antonio Gabica, 11-4.

Other top players advancing with round one wins include Kim Davenport, Charlie Bryant, Tony Robles, Charlie Williams, Shannon Daulton, Scott Frost, Mika Immonen, Alex Pagulayan, Corey Deuel, Johnny Archer, Ronnie Alcano, Jose Parica, Raj Hundal, and Rodney Morris.

Who's the tournament director this year?
 
Joey Testa

Is this Loey from New Jersey area? If so good luck Joey. I played a Joey Testia from Jersey in Vegas a couple years ago. If not sorry for the bother.

I was told by a reliable source yesterday that Larry Nevel's car got crashed in a parking lot a couple of days before the open was supposed to start, and was in no condition to make the trip to Chesapeake. He had no way to get there, and didn't have time to get thing together for a car rental, etc. He called Barry Berhman and explained what happened. That's why he didn't show up for his matches at the Open.

I'm not sure if he got a refund on his money or not.

Wendy, I'm surprised not to see the Quakester on the roster. It hardly seems like the U.S. Open without Keith and Jam attending.:confused: Anyone know why they couldn't make it?

BTW, that left side of the board may prove to be more interesting than the right; what with all that weight getting deposited over there. There are those that you have mentioned, plus Nick Vita, Edwin Montal, Tommy Kennedy, etc., etc. What a line-up!
