Re: 11th Chunlan Cup
Tan Xiao won the 3rd game by resign in the endgame, so wins the 11th Chunlan Cup. He was #1 in the Chinese ratings about 6 years ago and won some domestic titles back then, but since then was overtaken by players like Shi Yue (whose rating has since dived, whilst Tan has had a steady resurgence) and Ke Jie, and this is his first international title (so earns his 9p).

Re: 11th Chunlan Cup
Tan Xiao was arguably the strongest non-9P Chinese player (along with Lian Xiao), and it's nice to finally see him earn the well-deserved 9P. Wonder who holds the record for the highest rating when promoted 9P (Tan Xiao was 3511 on gorating).
