Tokyo, Kuramae Kokugokan
There will be a new basho champion as Chiyonofuji is out through injury. He hurt his elbow but was still able to not only complete the match but he came out with the win over Ozutsu. The injury is not thought to be too serious and he should return for the final tournament of the year.
This turn of events leaves the door wide open for perennial bridesmaids Kitanoumi and Kotokaze, but Wakanohana and Asashio are not to be counted out either. And there were a pair of shock wins for Hakuryuyama and Shishiho as they turned over Sadanoumi and Kaiki respectively.
