第四届“擎天杯”棋王争霸赛开战!

第四届“擎天杯”棋王争霸赛第二轮战罢 四强名单揭晓

第四届“擎天杯”棋王争霸赛第二轮(8强赛)于8月16日晚6时举行。经过激烈角逐,林超贤、刘亿豪、吴宗翰及许永坤成功晋级半决赛,四强名单正式出炉。

首场较量中,林超贤执黑迎战杜衡。杜衡以士角炮开局,意图稳扎稳打。双方开局展开激烈对抗,大子力经过交换后,逐渐形成红方车双马对黑方车马炮的局面。

眼看局面逐渐趋向和棋,林超贤抓住红方左马较为薄弱的特点,升车兵林展开骚扰。杜衡也不甘示弱,跳马出击,主动放弃中兵。进入中局后,林超贤以中卒为诱饵,杜衡果然应招。此时,黑方的沉底炮与中将形成牵制,红方的中马陷入险境——若红方逃马,黑方随即斩士铁门栓,形成杀着。红方最终无法化解攻势,丢马后寡不敌众,林超贤乘势取胜,锁定半决赛席位。

随后,刘亿豪战胜徐道嵘。本局红方以中炮开局,黑方选择顺炮应对,双方展开激烈对抗。进入中局后,黑方一着不慎,被红方河口马踩炮,随后红方回马金枪,连续踩车、踩炮,局面迅速转为红方胜势,刘亿豪最终取胜。

吴宗翰执先手战胜陈中和,顺利晋级四强。至此,两位种子棋手刘亿豪与吴宗翰均延续了良好状态,成功突破8强赛。

本轮最为胶着的一场比赛,则是许永坤与朱永吉的对决。双方在慢棋阶段难分高下,战和后进入加赛。加赛中,许永坤执黑应战,凭借双炮车的凌厉攻势突破红方防线,最终成功取胜,锁定最后一个半决赛席位。

至此,本届“擎天杯”四强正式产生:

林超贤 刘亿豪 吴宗翰 许永坤

本届赛事首次采用一局制单败淘汰赛,16位棋手一路过关斩将,如今仅剩四位棋手继续争夺最终的“擎天杯”棋王桂冠。

半决赛将于下周六举行。随着赛事进入最后阶段,棋局也将更加精彩。究竟谁能突破重围,晋级最终决赛?让我们拭目以待!

第四届“擎天杯”棋王争霸赛首轮战罢 8强名单出炉

第四届“擎天杯”棋王争霸赛于8月15日正式打响。本届赛事共有16位棋手参赛,为“擎天杯”历届参赛人数最多的一届。赛事今年首次采用一局制单败淘汰赛,每一局棋都将直接决定棋手能否继续前进,令比赛更具紧张感与悬念。

本届赛事按照最新等级分设立了四位种子棋手,分别为吴宗翰特级大师、刘亿豪大师、朱永吉大师及林超贤医生。四位种子棋手在首轮比赛中均发挥出色,顺利晋级下一轮。

赛事赞助人、新加坡象棋总会永久名誉会长孙敬亭先生也亲临现场,并为参赛棋手致辞。孙先生首先向所有到场参赛的棋手表示肯定,并指出,能够来到赛场、勇于参与和接受挑战,本身就是一件值得赞许的事情。他也鼓励各位棋手在比赛中尽自己的最大努力,发挥最佳水平。

永久名誉会长孙敬亭致辞

孙敬亭先生同时为大家分享了“擎天杯”三个字背后的意义。他特别提到,“”字可以拆解为“”与“”,寓意棋手在棋盘上应当尊重对手,以棋会友;而“”字则可以拆解为“”和“”,寓意在一场竞争激烈的比赛中,最终只能有一位冠军脱颖而出。

这番分享也与本届全新的淘汰赛制相互呼应。16位棋手通过抽签展开首轮较量,每一局都没有重来的机会。经过激烈角逐,林超贤、杜衡、徐道嵘、刘亿豪、吴宗翰、陈中和、许永坤及朱永吉成功晋级8强。值得一提的是,首轮各场比赛均在慢棋阶段分出胜负,无需进入加赛,赛事顺利完成。

National Day Celebration Xiangqi Talk 🇸🇬

Today, we had the pleasure of having Master Allen Choo share two of his memorable games, offering valuable insights into the strategies and thought processes behind them.

Master Choo is one of Singapore’s leading xiangqi players and has represented Singapore in international competitions. He is also a highly respected and well-known figure within the local xiangqi community.

The talk was very well received, with lively discussions and enthusiastic participation from the audience.

To conclude the session, our Honorary Life President, Mr Lim Kwan How, presented Master Choo with a specially prepared gift in recognition of his outstanding xiangqi skills, achievements, and contributions to the game.

A meaningful way to celebrate National Day through our shared passion for xiangqi! 🇸🇬

Master Allen Choo Crowned Champion of the 6th Chan Soo Sen Cup Graphic Xiangqi Tournament

A Xiangqi Tournament Filled with Thrilling Comebacks and Unforgettable Moments!

Yesterday’s Chan Soo Sen Cup National Xiangqi Open delivered excitement from start to finish, with every round packed with drama that kept spectators on the edge of their seats.

This year’s tournament was played using graphical Xiangqi chess sets, where pictorial symbols replaced the traditional Chinese character pieces. This unique format not only gave the tournament a distinctive identity but also made the pieces more easily recognizable to players from different linguistic backgrounds, further promoting the globalisation of Xiangqi.

It was especially encouraging to see a strong turnout of youth players this year, competing alongside seasoned veterans. Their enthusiasm, fighting spirit, and tremendous potential have injected fresh energy into Singapore’s Xiangqi community and give us great confidence in the future of the game.

One of the most memorable moments came in Round 6. In an intense time scramble, with only seconds remaining on the clock, Master Allen Choo held his nerve under immense pressure to defeat tournament favourite Master Li De Zhi, producing one of the biggest upsets of the event. The game was a brilliant display of composure, resilience, and decision-making under extreme pressure.

The excitement continued into the final round. Jovan Wang found himself in a difficult position but never gave up, patiently searching for his opportunity. When his opponent made a critical blunder, Wang seized the moment to complete a stunning comeback and secure a crucial victory. It was yet another reminder that in Xiangqi, the game is never over until the very last move.

What made the tournament even more remarkable was how incredibly close the competition was. Second and third place were separated by just one additional win with the black pieces. Such a razor-thin margin reflects the exceptionally high standard of play, where every game—and every single move—could make the difference in the final standings.

Congratulations to all the prize winners, and heartfelt thanks to every participant for contributing such exciting and memorable games. While victory is important, it was the fighting spirit, composure under pressure, and determination displayed by all the players that truly made this tournament special.

Finally, we extend our heartfelt appreciation to Mr. Chan Soo Sen, the tournament’s Title Sponsor, and Singapore China Baijiu for their generous support and sponsorship. Their invaluable contributions made this event possible, providing players with a high-quality platform to compete while promoting the continued growth and development of Xiangqi in Singapore.

We were also honoured to have Dr. Kong Jing Wen, President of the Singapore Xiangqi General Association, grace the prize presentation ceremony. Joining him were Honorary Members Mr. Lim Kwan How, Mr. Lee Sit Seng, and Mr. Charles Oon, President of the Singapore China Baijiu. Mr. Chan Soo Sen also serves as an Advisor to the Singapore Xiangqi General Association, reflecting his longstanding commitment to the development of Xiangqi in Singapore.

A big thank you as well to all the players, arbiters, volunteers, staff, and supporters who made this tournament a success. We look forward to welcoming everyone back to the next Chan Soo Sen Cup National Xiangqi Open for even more exciting Xiangqi battles!

一场充满逆转与悬念的象棋大战!

昨天举行的曾士生杯全国象棋公开赛精彩纷呈,每一轮都充满戏剧性,让人看得目不转睛。

本届赛事采用图形式象棋棋具进行比赛,以图案代替传统汉字棋子,不仅增添了赛事特色,也让不同语言背景的棋手更容易辨识棋子,进一步推广象棋运动的国际化发展。

令人欣喜的是,今年赛事吸引了不少青少年棋手踊跃参赛,与资深棋手同场竞技。他们展现出的拼搏精神与无限潜力,为新加坡象棋运动注入了新的活力,也让人对未来的发展充满期待。

最令人印象深刻的,莫过于第六轮。在读秒阶段,仅剩短短几秒钟的紧张时刻,朱永吉大师顶住巨大压力,成功击败赛前大热门黎德志大师,成为全场焦点。这盘棋充分展现了棋手在高压环境下的心理素质和临场应变能力。

来到最后一轮,比赛依然高潮迭起。王康全一度处于劣势,但始终没有放弃,坚持寻找机会。最终,对手出现关键漏招,王康全成功把握机会完成逆转,赢下这盘至关重要的对局,再次证明了象棋比赛不到终局,一切皆有可能。

更令人惊叹的是,第二名与第三名之间的最终排名,竟然只相差一个后手胜局!如此微小的差距,足见本次赛事竞争之激烈,每一盘棋、每一步棋,都可能决定最终的名次。

恭喜所有获奖棋手,也感谢每一位参赛者为大家奉献了一场场精彩绝伦的对局。胜负固然重要,但大家展现出的拼搏精神、沉着应战和永不放弃的态度,更是本次赛事最值得喝彩的地方。

最后,衷心感谢本次赛事的冠名赞助人曾士生先生、以及赞助单位新加坡中国白酒(Singapore China Baijiu)对赛事的大力支持。正因为有你们的慷慨赞助与支持,才能让赛事顺利举办,为棋手们提供高水平的竞技平台,也共同推动新加坡象棋运动的发展。

本届赛事颁奖典礼亦荣幸邀请到新加坡象棋总会会长龚敬文医生担任颁奖嘉宾,并由本会名誉会员林关浩先生、李锡森及新加坡中国白酒董事长云伟龙先生共同出席。值得一提的是,曾士生先生亦担任新加坡象棋总会顾问,长期支持本地象棋事业的发展,为推动象棋运动贡献良多。

再次感谢所有参赛棋手、裁判、工作人员及支持赛事的朋友们。期待下一届曾士生杯全国象棋公开赛再聚首,共同见证更多精彩对局!

Pesta Sukan Xiangqi 2026 Concludes on a High Note with Outstanding Performances Across All Age Groups

The annual Pesta Sukan Xiangqi Competition 2026, organised by Sport Singapore, concluded successfully over the weekend of 18–19 July 2026, bringing together players from across generations in one of Singapore’s premier community sporting festivals.

The two-day event featured competitions across Under-9, Under-12 and Under-16 categories on Saturday (18 July), followed by the Under-21, Open and Veteran categories on Sunday (19 July). From enthusiastic young beginners to seasoned masters, the tournament showcased not only exceptional playing strength but also the continued growth of Singapore’s Xiangqi community.

A Promising Future for Singapore Xiangqi

The first day of competition highlighted the tremendous progress made by Singapore’s young Xiangqi talents. While medals were awarded to the top performers, many of the tournament’s most memorable moments came from the resilience and composure displayed by the participants.

One of the most dramatic encounters unfolded in the Under-16 category, where the championship race remained undecided until the very end. Both players entered severe time pressure, with only their final minute remaining on the clock, eventually sharing the point after a fiercely contested draw.

Equally impressive was a remarkable Under-12 endgame, where a young player calmly converted a difficult single rook versus two advisors and two advanced pawns (单车对双士双过河卒) position into victory despite having less than one minute remaining. The game demonstrated not only technical skill but also exceptional decision-making under pressure.

During the prize presentation ceremony, Singapore Xiangqi National Team player GM Alvin Woo Tsung Han—a 12-time Singapore National Champion, 2023 SEA Games Gold Medallist, and 2023 World Xiangqi Championship Men’s Team Champion—presented the prizes to the winners. His presence served as an inspiration to the next generation, reminding young players that world-class excellence can indeed be nurtured here in Singapore.

Chairman Dr Kong Jing Wen shared that while artificial intelligence continues to transform many aspects of society, qualities such as analytical thinking, resilience, and sound decision-making under uncertainty will remain invaluable. Xiangqi, he noted, develops precisely these attributes, ensuring its continued relevance in nurturing future generations.

Chairman Dr Kong Jing Wen

He also paid tribute to the many parents who patiently accompanied and supported their children throughout the competition, recognising that every young player’s journey is made possible through the quiet sacrifices and unwavering encouragement of their families.

High-Level Battles Across the Senior Categories

Sunday’s competitions saw the Under-21, Open and Veteran categories take centre stage, with many of Singapore’s strongest players competing in fiercely contested rounds.

Reflecting on the two-day tournament, Chairman Dr Kong Jing Wen remarked that the overall standard of Xiangqi in Singapore has continued to improve significantly. The quality of play, fighting spirit and sportsmanship displayed across all categories were a testament to the dedication of players, coaches and the wider Xiangqi community.

In his address, he encouraged participants with a simple yet meaningful message:

“While we all strive to make the best move on the Xiangqi board, may we also strive to make the best moves in life.”

The Open category once again demonstrated the depth of Singapore’s elite players, with GM Alvin Woo Tsung Han successfully defending his Open championship title through another outstanding performance.

The Under-21 championship was claimed by Jovan Wong, whose consistent play throughout the tournament earned him the top honours among Singapore’s emerging young adults.

One of the most inspiring stories of the weekend came from the Veteran category. Mr Lim Kwan How, Immediate Past President and Permanent Honorary President of the Singapore Xiangqi General Association, entered the tournament as its oldest participant. Defying age, he produced a flawless seven wins from seven games to capture the Veteran championship. During the prize presentation ceremony, participants and officials also surprised him by singing a birthday song in celebration of his upcoming birthday, creating one of the weekend’s most heartwarming moments.

His remarkable achievement served as a powerful reminder that passion, discipline and the pursuit of excellence know no age limit.

A Celebration of the Xiangqi Community

Beyond the results, Pesta Sukan 2026 was a celebration of Singapore’s vibrant Xiangqi community. Players of all ages came together to compete, learn and forge friendships through the game they love.

The Singapore Xiangqi General Association extends its heartfelt appreciation to Sport Singapore for organising this year’s Pesta Sukan, as well as to all the players, arbiters, volunteers, coaches, parents and supporters whose dedication made the event a resounding success.

颁奖仪式 · 会长致辞

七轮激战于傍晚五时许结束,颁奖仪式随后在会所礼堂举行。甘榜景-菜厝公民咨询委员会副主席PBM苏明芳和新加坡象棋总会会长龚敬文医生受邀担任颁奖嘉宾。龚敬文医生在致辞中与现场棋手和家长分享了他认为学习象棋远远不只是一项棋类运动、而是能够让人终身受益的三个原因:

第一,提升思维能力。海外有关国际象棋的研究显示,下棋与认知能力的发展、包括智商的提升,存在正向关联。中国象棋同样能够培养逻辑思维、专注力、战略规划以及解决问题的能力,这些都是未来社会不可或缺的重要素质。

第二,传承中华文化,提升华文能力。会长忆述自己求学时就读于一所以英语为主要交流语言的学校,正因为与朋友一起学习和切磋象棋,接触到许多中华文化中的经典成语——许多著名的象棋残局都以成语命名——让大家从作文里常写的“风和日丽”,逐渐认识并运用更多富有文化底蕴的成语,也更加体会中华文化的博大精深。

第三,培养未来社会所需的领导力。在人工智能高速发展的时代,未来决定一个人竞争力的,已不仅仅是学术成绩,更包括领导能力、抗逆能力、战略思维以及判断与决策能力,而这些正正是象棋在长期学习过程中不断培养的重要素养。

会长也表示,总会第四十届理事会汇聚了来自金融、法律、医疗、教育、商业等不同专业领域的优秀领袖,未来将携手陪伴青年棋手成长,结合象棋的智慧与哲学,培养更多兼具棋艺、品格与领导力的新一代人才。

“今天没有赢下的,只是一盘象棋;只要继续磨练棋艺、勇于面对挑战、坚持学习、永不放弃,凭着持续不断的努力,你们终将赢得人生这盘更重要的棋局!”—— 会长寄语未获奖棋手

恭喜所有获奖棋手!本届赛事参赛者以青少年棋手为主力,U10 与 U14 两个组别合计超过全场半数,足见象棋运动在年轻一代中的蓬勃朝气。感谢赛事发起人与筹办团队的悉心筹备、裁判团队的严谨执裁,以及所有到场的棋手与家长。期待明年再会!
