report on behalf of the 1M2H and DESGW collaborations:
In the process of searching the localization region of LIGO/Virgo S190510g (LIGO/VIRGO Collaboration, GCN #24448), we obtained 3-minute r-band exposures of the following regions with the Goodman High Throughput Spectrograph on the SOAR 4-m telescope. The field of view is a 7.2-arcmin diameter circle. The approximate center of each image is noted in the table below. We also note the approximate 3-sigma limiting magnitude of each image.
Comparing our images to DES DR1 r-band images of the same fields, we did not detect any transient sources.

We did not cover the location of any candidate identified in Andreoni et al. (GCN #24467).
We would like to thank Jay Elias for facilitating these Target of Opportunity observations.
