Ueno Asami has reached the 3rd round of the 2nd Quzhou Lanke International Cup, the best international performance by a Japanese woman ever, surely. She did it by beating two men, Korean Pak Min-kyu 8-dan and Chinese (former LG Cup winner) Xie Erhao.

But it doesn't stop there! Iyama Yuta also got to round 3, though by a slightly easier route. When was the last time he won two international games in a row?

Golden Week has officially begun a few days early in Japan this year :)

Iyama beat Fan Tingyu (former Ing cup winner) in the third round :tmbup:

Nihon Kiin webpage has next round's pairings. Going by that, he will be up against Byun Sang-il in late June.

Ueno Asami is out.
