Kotoshoho Kachi-Koshi

Hokutofuji Kachi-Koshi

Kachi-Koshi Okinoumi; Make-Koshi Enho
Okinoumi secured his kachi-koshi today after beating Enho in a tough bout which started with a matta.
Unfortunately for Enho, he now has a make-koshi in this July basho. His tournament record has failed to pick up the pace since the victory against Ozeki Takakeisho was taken away from him by the gyoji’s controversial decision.
Terunofuji beats Asanoyama for Yūshō leadership
Asanoyama and Terunofuji fought an intense bout on Day 13 of the July tournament with the prospect of either rikishi taking the tournament lead by winning the match. After a long battle, Terunofuji got the upper hand and thrust Asanoyama out of the dohyo by yorikiri.
If Terunofuji beats Shodai on Day 14 and Asanoyama loses to Terutsuyoshi, Terunofuji will claim the Yūshō.
