WITHDRAWAL: Nishikifuji (M13). Neck. Status uncertain. Per stablemaster Isegahama there is a chance he will return depending on how treatment goes and the severity of the injury. He probably needs to return by early in the second week and get at least 3 wins to avoid demotion to Juryo. Ryuden got the fusen as a result.

Lower tier notes: Enho won his Makushita return match today as he tries to get closer to promotion back to Juryo. No match tomorrow so his second match should be on Day 4. Asanoyama will also probably have his second Sandanme match on Day 4, but those have not been announced yet.
