hello

Welcome to the 4th GLOBIS Cup World Go U-20. The event you’ve all been waiting for is finally here!

In the first year for the first time in 16 years at a global tournament, we had two Japanese players face off in the final round. In the second year, Chinese and Koreans shared the awards stage. Last year, participants from China, Japan, and Korea each won a prize.

Now, in our fourth year, we again are down to 16 players from Japan, China, Korea, Chinese Taipei, North America, Europe, and the rest of Asia and Oceania. We are excited to see what drama will unfold next.

The GLOBIS Cup has 3 characteristics.
1) It is the only global tournament held in Japan;
2) It is the only global tournament for players under 20; and
3) It is the only global tournament sponsored by a business school in the world.

My hope is that competing on this GLOBIS Cup stage will stimulate the passion and skills these young players have for Go even more.
We hope you will continue to support the GLOBIS Cup. Enjoy the tournament!
