Kiribayama (K) beat Shodai (O)
Mitakeumi (O) beat Ichinojo (K)
Tobizaru (M1) beat Terunofuji (Y). KINBOSHI! (Gold Star Victory, awarded when a Maegashira, considered a rank-and-file wrestler in the top tier, defeats a Yokozuna in a scheduled match. Not awarded when victory is by default/withdrawal. The prize for a Kinboshi is additional bonus prize money-I believe the equivalent of $300 US-each day the wrestler is active in a tournament for the rest of their career. The bonus is cumulative if more than one is earned). 1st career Kinboshi for Tobizaru. There is another Kinboshi chance on Day 3 because Terunofuji’s next opponent is Kotonowaka.

Tochimusashi (J14) beat Takakento (J14)
Oshoma (J13) beat Tochimaru (J13)

Daishoho (J8) beat Kaisho (J9)
Enho (J7) beat Kotokuzan (J7)

Hidenoumi (J5) beat Kagayaki (J4)
Bushozan (J4) beat Tohakuryu (J3)
Azumaryu (J2) beat Atamifuji (J3)
Shimanoumi (J1) beat Chiyonokuni (J2)
Asanoyama Watch: The former Ozeki defeated Kawazoe in his first match in Makushita. Kawazoe, making his Grand Sumo Debut, was clearly overmatched but earned huge cheers and respect for being bent all the way back on his knees like a slinky before being forced out by Asanoyama in a yoritaoshi (frontal crush out). An absolutely incredible sight that won him a lot of fans. No match on Day 3.
