Women's Mingren

Keywords: Tournament

The Women’s Mingren or Female Mingren is a Chinese professional women's tournament, the female equivalent of the Mingren.

It has a complicated history.

The first incarnation was as what is now known as the Old Women's Mingren, which ran from 1989 to 1991. In each edition, the tournament changed its location and name.

It’s unclear why Japanese professional Aoki Kikuyo apparently competed in the 1991 edition.

Ed.	Year	Winner	Runner-up	Name	Location
1	1989	Huang Yan	Zhang Xuan	Jinxing	Beijing
2	1990	Xu Ying	Yang Hui	Huanghe	Xian
3	1991	Ye Gui	Aoki Kikuyo	Shuxing	Hainan

The next form of the event was the Female Mingren of 2001 to 2002, which was resurrected for a 2005 edition as well.

Ed.	Year	Winner	Score	Runner-up
1	2001	Zhang Xuan	1–0	Yang Hui
2	2002	Yu Meiling	1–0	Meng Zhaoyu
3	2005	Ye Gui	2–0	Li Chunhua

After another hiatus, a third version was created: the Huang Longshi (Women's Mingren), which was held in 2010 and 2011. It might also have been held in later years, but there's no obvious information to support that possibility.

Ed.	Year	Winner	Score	Runner-up
1	2010	Zheng Yan	1–0	Li He
2	2011	Li He	1–0	Chen Yiming

The most recent tournament is sponsored by the People's Daily newspaper group, first held in 2018, or 2018-19. It has a [ext] Go to Everyone! section.

Ed.	Year	Winner	Score	Runner-up
1	2018	Chen Yiming	2–0	Wang Chuang
2	2019	Zhou Hongyu	2–1	Wang Yubo
3	2023	Yu Zhiying	2–1	Zhou Hongyu
4	2024	Yu Zhiying	2–0	Lu Minquan
