IM Michael Brooks to compete for chance at US Championship invite

The US Championship, which will be held in St. Louis, Missouri, on April 13-28, has all but two slots filled. Westport Chess Club's own IM Michael Brooks will compete for one of those two remaining spots to have a chance at the US Championship title. On March 4-9, eight GMs, IM Michael Brooks, and an FM will compete for the final two invitations to the 2011 U.S. Championship at the "Saint Louis Invitational", a round-robin tournament scheduled to be held at the Chess Club and Scholastic Center of Saint Louis. Michael has some hard games ahead of him, but I believe he can do it.
