It's time to do some catching up with the TUG Standings. 

Comparing with the start of last basho, this one was more successful - 24 (70.6%) Gamers scored points.

Jejima, ScreechingOwl and Kyoju achieved Golden Bonus (GoB) points to keep the tradition alive. Congratulations!

Jejima started with a bold move picking Hokutofuji to defeat Yokozuna Hakuho. He did and it paid off big time.
