IGF Winners
As no WAGC was held in 2003 because of SARS, an event with
slightly different format was held.
The Yokohama Sotetsu Cup was held seven times in Yokohama,
Japan, and
The Korea Life Insurance Cup was held once in Seoul, Korea.
At
the World Amatuer Go Championships, each year
an increasing number of countries send one of their top amateur players
to compete for the title. Here we can see some of the boards at a WAGC,
with players, game recorders and spectators. Despite other countries
trying hard to win, only Asian countries have won the WAGC so far.
