This month, Tobamaru Shibano, who became a master in the teens for the first time in Go, will start on the 25th in the championship game to challenge Yuta Iyama's four crowns, the top active player, and Master Shibano won the first station. It was.
One of Go's seven major titles, the fifth game of the championship game, was played by 19-year-old Toba Maru Shibano, who challenged Yuta Iyama's four crowns (30), the current top player with the title. The first station was held at the hotel.
Master Shibano won one of the seven major titles on the 8th of this month, winning the title of “Master” at the age of 19 years and 11 months, and the youngest record of the seven major titles that Izan Shikaku had. We are updating.
The game on the 25th started at 10:00 am and continued the same battle until the end of the game, but at around 7:30 pm, Master No. Shibano won the match with a half win.
After the event, Shibano Master asked when he was convinced that he would win, and said, “I didn't know until the end. This time I won, but I think it will continue to be a tough battle.”
And Iyama Shikan, looking back on the game, said, “It was a lot of things I didn't know. I would like to be ready for the next game, but I would like to be ready in a good condition.”
The fifth game will be held in December, and if Shibano master wins two more, it will be “two crowns” at the earliest together with master.
On the other hand, if Iyama four crowns rolls back and wins three times in the first place, he will win the fifth consecutive title championship and earn the honorary throne qualification.
