Professional Shogi Players From Wakayama Prefecture
A professional is a member of a profession or any person who works in a specified professional activity. The term also describes the standards of education and training that prepare members of the profession with the particular knowledge and skills necessary to perform their specific role within that profession. In addition, most professionals are subject to strict codes of conduct, enshrining rigorous ethical and moral obligations. Professional standards of practice and ethics for a particular field are typically agreed upon and maintained through widely recognized professional associations, such as the IEEE. Some definitions of "professional" limit this term to those professions that serve some important aspect of public interest and the general good of society.Sullivan, William M. (2nd ed. 2005).

Yōryū Fourth File Rook
In shogi, Yōryū Fourth File Rook (耀龍四間飛車 ''yōryū shikenbisha'') is a Fourth File Rook (Ranging Rook) opening. This strategy was developed by Takahiro Ōhashi, who published a systematic study of it in a book of the same name in 2020. He was awarded the prestigious Masuda Award in 2021 for the development of this tactic. Overview This tactic is a similar to a Normal Fourth File Rook opening. Instead of castling the king in a Mino castle, it is castled first in a Cozy castle, from which it can develop into various castles such as an Amano Fortress, Doi Fortress, Right King, Subway Rook, Peerless Golds, etc., depending on the circumstances. The characteristic of the Yōryū Fourth File Rook is that it keeps the position of the king at 38 (72 for White). While moving the king to a place other than 38 to develop the castle is also possible, that is different from the original conception of the Yōryū Fourth File Rook.
