The Korean TV channel GameTV will host a tournament where all of the players are girls. Ten top female players are invited to play. About half of them actually live as pro gamers already.
Participating players
The girls who are going to take part in this are all Korean. Some better known than the others. Four of them (Fan_Arima, SaSin)gano, Carot...[gm] and Tulip[gm]) were invited because they were recommended by the pro teams SouL and Plus.

More girls in the community?
"At last there is a great opportunity for girl gamers, like myself, to prove themselves as prominent contenders in the Brood War community.",
JeeYunee writes in her news post on WGTour.
Perhaps this initiative can get more girls to show that they really are alive and that they exist within the community. It has to be admitted that there is a lack of girls within the Starcraft community
Top 4 advances
The event will take place on Saturday December 11th. That is next weekend.
Everyone will play each other one time in a Round Robin. The 4 players who have the best stats after that will advance to the finals.
We at GosuGamers wish all of the participants good luck!
