The top 2 players from each zone then made it through to the Candidate's Tournament which was won by Donald Bailey. As Donald was travelling through the USA, the Challenge Match was arranged to cooincide with his visit. It was played
in Richard Ronglie's home, Virginia, USA.
Donald Bailey won the match 6-4 to regain the world title.
