“In Japan”.
I think that is something important to add in the title of the thread.

why would a top amateur player be more expensive than 1-5p ?
Sounds not logical

Maybe the amateur needs more money? :dollar: :dollar: :dollar:

In China, a top amateur player is stronger than the weakest pros.

Its say Pro 9p, which is not weak,6000 yen for the eldery for example
Maybe the table is not right formatet but that sound insane to me and quite rude

And its illogical too that the chinese amateur would be earning 5 time more than the japanese amateur player
