Some quick highlights from the first full day of the 2025 US Go Congress in Austin, Texas:
- Tournament results: Click here for round by round standings on the US Open, North American Masters, Seniors and Women’s tournaments.
- Videos/livestreams: In our first daily highlights show, Antti Tormanen 1P does a 54-minute speed round review of Sunday’s four Redmond Round 1 youth tournament games and eight top Master’s games. For a deeper dive on the games, check out Cathy Li 1P ’s commentary on Round 1 of the Masters and Michael Chen’s highly entertaining review of the Redmond Cup games, which includes drop-ins by some of the top players and pros when a special reception took over the EJ broadcast studio. Plus the Congress got hit by torrential rain and a flood watch Sunday; here’s a 1-minute video of the storm.
NOTE: There’s lots more happening at the Congress every day – too much for our tiny staff to get to -- and we’d love to include more reports and photos in the EJ! Send them to us at journal@usgo.org
