The 2008-2009 WCF Camelot World Championship Tournament that began on July 20, 2008, has been decided.  Dan Troyka of Saline, Michigan, USA, has retained his title of WCF Camelot World Champion.

The original eight challengers for the crown were divided into two four-man round robin candidates groups.  Each group member played a best-two-out-of-three-game match against each of the other three members of his group.  The two group winners, Michael Nolan and Jerry LaSala, played off in a best-three-out-of-five-game Candidates Final Match.  Mr. Nolan won the contest, giving him the right to challenge Mr. Troyka, the reigning World Champion, in a best-four-out-of-seven-game match for the Championship.  That match began on February 7, 2009, in Troy, Michigan, USA.  A second session was held on March 8, and a third and final session on May 31.  The time limit for all games was set at 40 moves in 2.5 hours.  After sixteen total hours of play, the match was won by Mr. Troyka by a score of 4-1/2 to 1-1/2 (four wins, one loss, one draw), thus he retains his title of WCF Camelot World Champion.
