We are honoured each year with invitations to send players to represent Europe at professional level events, including World championships. These include the Fujitsu Cup, Ing Cup, LG Cup, Toyota-Denso Oza, Chunlan Cup, and various on-line events such the Seimitsu. There are also women-only events for which we have received invitations. Sometimes players are invited directly by the organisers.
Some game records (with commentary) are provided thanks to Alexandr Dinerchtein.
Also see European Pros for details of European professionals.
Note the Bingsheng Cup is also known as the Qionglong Cup from where it is held.
We also have had invitations from time to time to send players to the Samsung Cup qualifying tournament.
