Huang Yizhong (born August 24, 1981) is a Chinese professional Go player.
Huang began playing Go at the age of 7. By the time he turned 11, he had entered his province's Go team. At 14, he was a part of the National Youth Go Team. Huang turned professional in 1994, a year before joining the team. He is currently 7 dan, since 2008. His biggest accomplishment was winning the Tianyuan title in 2002 over Chang Hao, which ended Chang Hao's five year-run with the title. However, Huang lost the title the next year to Gu Li, who has now held it for four years straight.[1]
