The atmosphere of this tournament was very relaxed, but that doesn't mean that the games weren't exciting: many fierce battles were conducted on the go-ban, and the decisive game was a nine-stone one! The surprise of the tournament was Saijo Sensei, who played this informal side event with the Italian Sonia Brazzoli. The handicap that they had to give to other pairs was very high, and they only won two games.
