Incheon World Amateur Baduk Championship
Keywords: Tournament
In 2003, the SARS epidemic forced postponement of the 25th World Amateur Go Championship scheduled for Japan, to 2004, and so an alternative World Amateur Championships was organized in Incheon, a city near Seoul, Korea. The Tournament was a 6 round Swiss to determine the top four players, then a semi-final and final to determine the winner.
The tournament was won by Hiraoka Satoshi (Japan), who eliminated Emil Nijhuis (The Netherlands) in the semi-final. The other finalist was Kim Junghwan? (Korea), who disposed of Dmitrij Bogatskij (Ukraine) in the semis.
