GoRatings lists 892 active professionals with at least one game on Go4Go. Wikidata records 951 total people with "Go professional" as their occupation. Sensei's Library apparently has entries for over 2,000 total professionals, which surprised me. Do we have other statistics? From GoGoD? |

The GoGoD Onomasticon has over 4,500 entries. Some are for journalists, poets, amateurs, shoguns etc but nearly all are for pros or equivalents (e.g. guoshous) spanning nearly 2,000 years. |
