Hangzhou Net Release time: 2023-09-28 08:04
Yesterday afternoon, the quarter-finals of the men’s individual Go event at the 19th Asian Games in Hangzhou ended. Chinese chess player Ke Jie, Japanese chess player Ichi Rikyo, Korean chess player Shin Jin-soo and Chinese Taipei chess player Xu Hao-hung advanced to the semi-finals.
According to the schedule, the semi-finals and finals of the men’s Go individual event will be held this morning and afternoon respectively. The intensity of the competition is very high.
After the game, Ke Jie, who had won seven games in a row, said her game went relatively smoothly yesterday and she was very happy to win the game. However, after officially entering the final time, Ke Jie’s state seemed more nervous than before. “The recent state is indeed a little different from before. I have been burdened with more things recently. In fact, this game is quite stressful, but fortunately I can withstand it.”
Even before the start of the game, many Go fans said that Ke Jie’s match against Shen Zhenzhen must be the biggest highlight of the Go event in this Asian Games. In today’s semifinals, if Ke Jieru succeeds in defeating Il-Liao, his contest with Shen Zhenzhen will take place in the afternoon.
In the previous preliminaries, Ke Jie had already played against Yili Liao and won. After the game yesterday, Ke Jie said bluntly to the camera that her biggest opponent is Shin Jin-jin, the number one player in Korean Go. “I will review the results again after I return, and I will work harder to win this gold medal,” Ke Jie said.
In addition, Chinese chess player Yang Dingxin was defeated yesterday and missed the men’s individual semi-finals. Yang Dingxin said that the opponent did perform well, but the competition system is such that if he does not perform well, he will be eliminated. “But there will be a men’s team competition later. I will make a good summary, try to adjust my condition, and continue to fight!”
It is understood that in previous games, Yang Dingxin played against Il Liao and Shen Zhenzhen respectively. He told reporters: “I hope Ke Jie will work hard, and I will review the match with him.”
