The Globis Cup was an international Go competition for players under the age of 20. The tournament was held annually from 2014 to 2023, a total of 10 times. It was organized by the Nihon Ki-in and sponsored by Globis, a Japanese company.

Rules

The Globis Cup was an under-20 Go competition, with 16 players in total from China, Japan, South Korea, Chinese Taipei, Europe, North America, and other Asian countries or Oceania. Players must be under 20 years old on January 1 of the year of the tournament (and may turn 20 by the time the event is actually held). Each player had 30 seconds per move, along with 10 one-minute periods of extra thinking time, which is like the NHK Cup.[1]

From the 1st to the 6th cup, the winner received 3,000,000 yen in prize money, the runner-up received 500,000 yen, and third place received 200,000 yen. Starting from the 7th cup, these prizes were 1,500,000 yen, 250,000 yen, and 100,000 yen, respectively.[1]
