Satomi's Sister Becomes Joryu-pro

Four Crown Women's Shogi-pro Kana Satimo's younger sister, Saki Satomi, has become a professional Joryu-kishi. She won the qualifier of Joryu-Osho Sen and advanced to the next stage. That made her a professional female shogi player. Two other siblings already became Joryu-pro. 
Kana and Saki were born in Shimsne. Kana became a pro-shogi player when she was only 12. After that she won a lot of female titles. She is trying to be a Pro-kishi now. No female player becomes Pro-kishi. 
I hope the sisters will face each other at Joryu title match someday.
