Eugene Chung (USA) started the day off strong with a 5-1 record in pools, earning the #7 seed and a first round bye. The rest did not do Chung well, however, as he started off his bout with Ivan Gavrilov (RUS) down 4-0. Chung would enter the break down 8-2. In the second period Chung did better, but was unable to mount a run and traded touches with Gavrilov, how won the match 15-8.
