Jakusotsu 5,892 Posted July 16, 2013 (And the most surprising fact of the day - this is Takekaze's first absence in over 8 years. I thought he'd missed time much more recently.)He missed many times, but always on the dohyo. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Asashosakari 19,095 Posted July 16, 2013 Some stuff added/changed in the previous post. BTW, apparently Takekaze had elbow surgery after Natsu basho. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Doitsuyama 1,178 Posted July 16, 2013 [Takekaze's] 729 consecutive makuuchi appearances were the second-longest active streak behind Kisenosato. Pretty impressive of Kisenosato, considering that he is only the 27th oldest out of 42 makuuchi rikishi. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Yubinhaad 11,605 Posted July 20, 2013 The Kyokai says Juryo 13e Chiyoarashi will be kyujo for Day 14, due to left knee ligament damage. Homarefuji will get the default win. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
