The Vietnamese player Ha Quynh Anh is very visible wearing a bright orange red coat. And I think she is also the youngest player here (I believe she was born in 2006, not yet 20 years old)

Fu Jianheng is also born in 2006, and Ye Changxin is born in 2007 so she’s not the youngest. But yeah, she’s the most obvious here haha. She also beat the oldest player in the final game in the selections.

Would’ve been a big upset if Ding Hao also lost but he still has a chance to be the champion for the third consecutive time.

I can’t not comment on this…
For such a prestigious competition, the lighting is appalling. The massive black shadows covering vast chunks of territory cannot be considered neutral. Perhaps Black eases off, feeling that they are further ahead than what they really are, or perhaps White starts playing more aggressively than needed erroneously thinking themselves to be further behind. “They’re professionals” I hear you say. Yes, but they’re still human. Better lighting please Samsung, this is what the fans want. This is what the players deserve.
