In the international amateur mixed doubles competition, South Korea's Xu Rongluo / Li Danfei defeated China's Wei Xiaolin / Song Yiwen to win the championship, and the third place was Japan's Cho Seok Bin / Iwai Wenzi. Xu Rongluo has become a professional chess player of the Korean Chess Academy in 2021, but because this tournament was originally planned to be held in 2020, it has been repeatedly postponed to 2022 due to the impact of the new crown pneumonia epidemic, and he still plays as an amateur, undoubtedly crushing the whole field.
The Xu Rongluo/Li Danfei combination is arranged by the Korean Chess Academy, and judging from the on-site furnishings, it is the place where Korean chess players have participated in the Chinese Weijia League since the epidemic.
The "Mixed Doubles Go World Cup" was first created in 2016 and witnessed the double pride dance of Ke Jie/Yu Zhiying. The competition was originally planned to be held in 2020 together with the Tokyo Olympic Games, but due to the continuous epidemic, it was once planned to be held online in 2021, and finally it was only in 2022 that it was realized, and the format of the competition was also greatly adjusted. In any case, as one of the important cities sponsored by Go, it is extremely rare for the Japan Doubles Association to insist on launching such a large-scale Go event during a period of ravages.
At the closing ceremony on March 21, Seiko Hashimoto, President of the Tokyo 2020 Organizing Committee, was invited to attend.
