Baduk or go champion Lee Se-dol has donated to charity all the money he received from LG Electronics under a sponsorship deal for a series of matches against Google DeepMind's proto-artificial intelligence program AlphaGo in March.
Lee made the donation at a rehabilitation center for the disabled in Seoul on Thursday.
He used the money to buy 50 each of LG's latest G5 smartphones and CAM Plus, a camera grip that adds physical controls to the G5's camera, and donated them to the center.
"I hope they will help the youngsters there pursue their dreams", Lee said.
