1986 Canadian open <under construction> Held in July at Winnipeg. Artur Yusupov won the tournament.

(page 10 - Harold Winston was the author of the report) for the synopsis of the 1978 event: 8 rounds, 85 teams, 369 players from 25 States, Canada and the Dominican Republic assembled between 26th-30 December, 1978 - at the Ramada O'Hare Inn at Chicago. The winning Yale A's team (captained by Michael Rohde (7 total points out of 8) and 2nd board Jonathan Tisdall (4.5 of 5 total games played) outranked many other team's top board in rating) had an average rating in excess of 2200, followed closely in average rating by the U of Pennsylvania A (defending champs of 1977) team and Florida, headed by Gregg Small. It is possible that T J Costigan vs M Rohde, 1978 could have been part of the Dec Pan-Am Intercollegiate event at Chicago, although its pgn is ambiguous. Twins Richard Costigan and Thomas J Costigan (scored 7.5 in his 8 played games to win top 2nd board prize) played for U of Pennsylvania A, Peter Nurmi and David Lavin played for York U and Diana Lanni (then ranked 14th of women in the USA) of U of Michigan. Minnesota A upset U of Toronto in the 4th round to make a 4-way tie with Yale A, U of Pennsylvania A and Florida. After many hours, Nurmi recovered an early round win against Purdue B after Lavin lost his match with Purdue. The 5th round saw a Yale 4-0 smash versus Florida with Pennsylvania A edging out Minnesota A 2.5-1.5, allowing Pennsylvania A to meet Yale (0.5-3.5) in the 6th round. Finally, Yale then beat Minnesota, and Pennsylvania took 2nd by beating Arizona state. Yale A not only won all their matches, but also did not lose a single of their 32 games. Sergey Kudrin of Columbia won the top board prize of 1st board and Peter Stein (IITB) scored 7 points out of 8 to win top 3rd board prize. table[1978 Pan-Am Intercollegiate standings Yale 8-0 U of Pennsylvania - A 7-1 U of Toronto 6½-1½ U of Minnesota - A 6-2 Ohio State U - A 6-2 Columbia U - A 6-2 Arizona State U 5½-2½ MIT 5½-2½ Purdue U - A 5½-2½ U of Cincinnati - A 5½-2½]table 6 games, 1986 1986 World correspondence chess championship <under construction> 1 game, 1986 1986 World Junior chess championship <under construction> Previous: Game Collection: 1985 World Junior chess championship Next: Game Collection: 1987 World Junior chess championship Held at Gausdal in August* (*according to J Piket vs F Hellers, 1986 but also see javascript:OpenWin("/perl/editornotes?kid=G11083- 02") by biographer Stonehenge who seems to think that this was part of the main (or were there more that these pairs of players participated in in Norway at this month?!) Gausdal tournament). It's the only game of Gausdal 1986 or WJr 1986 or similar so far that I've come across which hints at a month. Walter Arencibia Rodriguez and Simen Agdestein were 2 of the top scorers in this event. Ferdinand Hellers , Josef Klinger and Evgeny Bareev trailed them by a half-point.

Other players from Nova Scotia, Quebec, Saskatchewan, British Columbia and Ontario also played a number of players from the host province of Alberta.

(5th Pan-Am championship, 18 player, 9 round swiss, supervised under FIDE at Cuba, 20 February - 3 March as a date range). Granda Zuniga, for instance, does not show up in the Pan-Am crosstable, keeping things still a bit of a puzzle of why he has 2 round 10 games for this Capablanca mem. tournament (or were there a few play-off games mixed in with the regular games during upload)?! Was this tournament held at any similar date-range time, with such titled players having toured the country that year?
