NHK is broadcasting the yusho ceremony, cup and interview.

Terunofuji yusho!

Desperate for wins.

Takakeisho returning tomorrow.

Artistic Gymnastics Cup is on NHK G. No Juryo sumo today and Makuuchi already started. Still broadcasting gymnastics. (:

Senko?

Thanks Captain Obvious.

He looks like 650 pounds of chewed bubblegum. Sad.

He's already been discharged from the hospital without elaborating. Could have been heat stroke.

Kakuryu has no shame. I would expect nothing less than a henka from the mediocre Yokozuna desperate to add to his paltry yusho wins. He has done it TWICE in the same match vs. Kisenosato, Aki Basho 2015, day 14:

Konishiki was in a few movies. "Check It Out, Yo!" (2006), "Rimoto" (2002) and "The Fast and Furious: Tokyo Drift" (2006).
