In 2008 Lin Zhihan defeated Chen Shien 3-2 in 7th Taiwan Tianyuan, 2-1 in 1st Taiwan Qisheng and 3-1 in 4th Guoshou.

Lin won also the 8th (2009) Taiwan Tianyuan, defeating Chen Shien 3-2.

Hyperpapeterie: What justifies saying he is the strongest? Zhou Junxun seems like one obvious contender.

valerio: The list of complete games between Lin Zhihan and Chen Shien is on an italian blog ([ext] http://valeriosampieri.spaces.live.com/blog/cns!9A59FBB933BD0668!588.entry). Lin's record for 2008 is 56-20 (as of 2008-10-10: the higher number of wins in the world; Lee Changho has 53-15). Lin and Chen will compete in the finals for Guoshou Title (2008-10-30) and Zhonghuan (2008-11-06), also. Zhou Junxun don't compete in 2008 domestic tournaments ([ext] http://igo-kisen.hp.infoseek.co.jp/taiwan.html). Please, correct my very bad English.
