Because of the frequent successes of the 27th Samsung Cup World Go Masters, under the pomegranate skirt of Korean Go queen Choi Jing, there are several more male "distinguished guests", they are Yang Dingxin, Atsushi Sada, Yililiao and Bian Xiangyi from China, Japan and South Korea.
In addition to Atsushi Sada, the other three are all famous figures in the world chess world, so it is no accident that Cui Jing was able to reach the final of this Samsung Cup in one fell swoop.
Everyone knows that Cui Jing has long had the strength to fight against men's players. So, the question is, how many men's masters has she beaten in official matches?
Cui Jing Kudan
In order to clarify this question, the author conducted a rough count and found that there are really many domestic and foreign male chess players who are still active on the winning list of Queen Cui, and let me come to them one by one.
In this ranking, the most famous is naturally the five-time World Series champion and former Korean Go first player Park Yong-hwan. Choi Jing, who had previously lost six consecutive games, finally fulfilled his dream of defeating Park Yonghuan in the Korean Go League this year.
So far, Cui Jing and LG Cup world champion Shin Min-woon have fought in six sets, resulting in three games won by each side and a draw. You know, Shen Minyun's world title was won by defeating Ke Jie, the first Chinese Go player and eight-time champion of the World Series. And Shin Min-yun has long been in the top five in the Korean Go ranking rankings. Therefore, Cui Jing's record is very remarkable and can make many male compatriots ashamed.
For today's South Korean second eldest Bian Xiangyi, Cui Jing once suffered five consecutive defeats, and now he is trying to defeat Bian Xiangyi in the semifinals of the 27th Samsung Cup, and at the same time, he stepped into the Samsung Cup final stage for the first time, which can be described as killing two birds with one stone.
In addition, Choi Jing won 5 wins, 4 wins and 1 loss against Won Sung-chin and Park Jian-ho, who are in the top ten or so in today's rating; against Luo Xuan and Park Ha-min, 5 wins, 2 wins and 3 losses; 4-2 against veteran world champion Jiang Dongrun; 2 wins 1 win and 1 loss against young Junjie Lee Dong-hoon. These brilliant achievements are by no means available to ordinary chess players.
Cui Jing and Yili Liao
For Choi Jing, there are also regrets, that is, they lost all four battles against Shin Jin-hyun, Kim Ji-seok, and Lee Ji-hyun, and all three defeats against Kim Myung-hoon. In this way, there are still many mountains that she needs to conquer.
The next question is, which Chinese male masters have been "humiliated" by Cui Jing at the World Series? I reproduced the statistical record as follows:
Shi Yue, who claims to be averaging one dragon per game, unexpectedly lost two games against Cui Jing, namely the group stage of the 23rd Samsung Cup in 2018 and the round of 32 in the first round of the 24th LG Cup in 2019.
Zhou Hexi, a chess player, may not be very famous now, but more than 10 years ago, he won the right to challenge the Tian Yuan Tournament twice in a row, but unfortunately he was repaired by Chen Yaoye, but it was already very good. When he met Cui Jing, Zhou Hexi may have been merciful to his subordinates, fought three times, and lost twice. One of them was the first round of the Samsung Cup, and the other two were the qualifying rounds of the Bailing Cup and LG Cup.
In addition, Cui Jing won one battle against famous Chinese Go players such as Fan Yunruo, Gu Zihao, Tao Xinran, Yang Dingxin in the World Championship, and his skills can be seen.
The above battle data and time show that Cui Jing mostly defeated these pretentious male compatriots at the peak of the opponent, such as Shen Minyun, Bian Xiangyi, Yang Dingxin, Gu Zihao, etc., of course, there are also some opponents who are in the slippery slope, such as Park Tinghuan, Shi Yue, Yuan Shengqin, Jiang Dongrun, etc. In any case, Choi Jing's ability to achieve such a good result matches his status as the first female Go player in the world today, and is consistent with his rating score once rushing into the top 20 in South Korea.
Ke Jie Jiudan
Why is Cui Jing so powerful? It is widely believed that Cui Jing's rapid improvement in kung fu on the chess board is almost not afraid of any of the top male chess players, because the two often communicate on the Internet, and the two sides win and lose each other, although Cui Jing loses more. He's Ke Jie! It can be said that in Cui Jing's merit book, it is necessary to make a strong mark for the internationalist fighter Ke Jie.
Cui Jing has a wish, that is, to defeat Ke Jie in the official match, but unfortunately there has never been such a chance. If they really meet in the future, Ke Jie is likely to become Cui Jing's Wuxia Ameng. If you don't believe it, let's walk and see!
