As we begin this round, we have at the top Mikki Nicholson (Eng) 22½–6½ +2186 playing Siu Hean Cheah (SGP) 20½–8½ +908, and Craig Beevers (Eng) 20–9 +1603 playing Helen Gipson (Sco) 19–10 +976 with three rounds remaining, including this one.

Mikki only needs to win one of his remaining games, so if he wins this one, he will be Gibsonized.

Cheah wins, 412–381, and the drama continues.

Two Californians fly all the way to Malta to play a game of Scrabble, and the outcome is: a tie. Sandy Nang (USA) 337, Sam Kantimathi (USA) 337.
