Comments:

  • This may need validation, the Ma Xiaochun page writes Ma won the 1st and 2nd etc. CCTV Cups, not 1st and 3rd as is written here.
  • Valerio: Qian won 2nd edition on 1990-06-11; Ma lost to Liu Xiaoguang in semifinal. Kifu in my hands confirm these results. Source is on Kido Yearbook 1991, pag. 330. In fact, both Qian and Liu participated to 1990 Asian TV Cup. Confirmation, instead, was needed for the results of the 13rd edition (Hu Yaoyu won).

axd: maybe this may help: [ext] http://www.msoworld.com/mindzine/news/orient/go/china/_cctvsub.html

  • axd: is there a web page that lists the schedule of play/broadcast? Would it be possible to update this page when a new tournament is scheduled? I assume it is broadcast on [ext] http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CCTV-5
