Former No. 1?

It has been suggested on the list of number one professionals in history that she was the strongest Chinese female player in 1996, 1999, and 2001 (which seems like just a copy of the years she won the FNGI).

If we exclude Rui Naiwei, who was not playing in China at the time, Go Ratings ranks her #3 in 1996 and #4 in 1999 and 2001.
