posted Oct 27th, 2015 - It turned out that Chris Talbert and Golden Knights team captain Sean Sweeney both did not have enough confidence in the sequence of Round 1 of the 8-way competition at the USPA Nationals 2015.

The results of Round 3 were in perfect order from top to bottom, according to the rankings, with one exception.

The situation was different compared to the 8-way competition where the sequence for Round 9 did not seem to promise a new world record.
