Did he actually play chess competitively at all?

There are three games from the Somerset Open, 1992 in MegaBase 2022.
How likely is that to be accurate when:
- The source is ChessBase
- It was an event in America
- The USCF has no record in their rating database of the event taking place with the players named
- ChessBase says he's American
- He has a win against a 2295 rated opponent and a draw against a 2300 rated opponent despite having no other records of having played tournaments

Not likely at all!
