Peter Gilmour is back in first place with an 11-2 record on day three of the Congressional Cup in Long Beach.

Ed Baird is also in a strong position at 9-4 for a place in Saturday’s semifinals of the Swedish Match Tour event. Gavin Brady was 2-2 on the day to slip out of first place, but his 10-3 record (despite a half-point deduction for a collision incident Wednesday) almost certainly means he’ll be in the sail-offs in quest of his third Crimson Blazer.
