We received an invitation for the 2025 Samsung Fire & Marine Insurance World Masters Baduk | World Division preliminary. This is a qualifying event for the "Samsung Cup", a very famous international tournament with the world top players.
European players are invited to register to the qualifying stage "world division".
It will be played in Seoul, Korean Baduk Association building, from August 19 to 24th.
Organisers provide 1000$ for accommodation.
Registration deadline is July 20th.
Please find all the details here and link to register: https://www.eurogofed.org/index.html?id=496
The selection will be done based on EGD ranking.
The timing is extremely short, we are very sorry for this but have to do with it.
For information, last year, our European participants were kyu to 6d players. It is recommended to be 5d+ to have a chance to win, though.
Thank you!
