A quick translation from an article in Chinese giving details about Gu and Lee

* Both born in 1983
* Both became professional in 1995
* First title: Gu in 2001 (Chinese Xinren Wang); Lee in 2000 (Korean Chunwon)
* Total titles: Gu 40; Lee: 42
* International titles: Gu: 7; Lee: 14
* Gu also won a number of bilateral competitions (e.g. Chinese-Korean Tengen) which is not counted in above data

* Both had a poor 2013 without winning anything
* Both managed to win a title in January (Gu: Longxing; Lee: KBS Cup)

* Games between them: Gu won 17; Lee won 18; 1 void

* Both have one daughter.

Pretty close statistics. I will see if I can generate the title list from my database which will need some programming.

Here is the list of Gu Li's titles, with links to game records.

I've established a procedure so in the future such reports can be generated almost automatically.

Games between the two players:

It's not clear to me why this is mentioned. Presumably it is a strategic disadvantage?

It depends on the age of the daughters as to how much stress and what kinds of stress each player is subjected to (=

I would expect this to be an advantage, as they know they need the winner's purse
