16 March, Lee Changho 9p play two games against Lee Sedol 9p in KBS Cup. Before that, Lee Changho was leading 1-0 after winning first game in the final. KBS Cup is sponsored by KBS TV, so games have to be extremely fast, bacause no one will watch 3-hours games at TV Show. Lee Sedol evens the score in 2nd game of final, but in 3rd game he lost to Lee Changho.

Korean Baduk Association announced today, July’s ranking list of top 50 Korean Professionals. Lee Sedol 9p is no 1 from 9 consecutive months. Second place belongs to Lee Changho 9p but points difference is really huge: 15,055 to 13,215. I also found interesting fact on Cyberoro site: The highest ranked woman pro player in Korea is Cho Hyeyeon 7p with 51 place, so maybe in near future she will advance to top50 :)
