Ting Li 1P Visits the Schaumburg Go Club

Ting Li 1P visited the Chicago area after the recent U.S. Go Congress and paid a visit to the Schaumburg Go Club.

 "She wanted to see 'American go' played in a coffee shop," said Lee Hunyh 1d, a club member and Chicago native whom Ting happened to ask at Congress about the local sights. Ting graciously played two simuls -- winning all her games, of course -- gave a game review, and signed a board. “She speaks Chinese, Japanese, and English, and hence was able to review each simul game in the native language of the club member,” says local organizer Daniel Smith. Many club members had never met a professional player before, and “everyone greatly appreciated the time Ting spent with us,” Smith added.
