Michael Chen won the Professional Qualification Tournament organized by the North American Go Federation in August and thus was promoted to 1-dan professional. You will find an interview with him in the September & October edition of the European Go Journal. We discussed Michael's path in the go world, a recent Professional Qualification, and life beyond the go board.
