Asanoyama Watch: The former Ozeki was a surprise guest today as the Makushita Man in Juryo, easily beating Tokushoryu to go to 4-0 and clinch a 4th straight promotion and winning record. No match tomorrow and he now may not compete again until Day 9, when the Makushita begins round 5. For now he’s the sole Makushita leader with 14 at 3-0.
In the Sandanme, 22 are tied at 3-0. In the Jonidan, 24 are tied at 3-0, while in the Jonokuchi former top tier and Juryo mainstay Kyokutaisei, attempting a comeback after missing the last 3 tournaments and most of the prior 2 following a few poor performances, is off to a good start as he is one of four left at 3-0. At this point it’s all but definite he’ll at least move back up to Jonidan in January, a pace that if all goes well could put him back up in Makushita by May..
