Or will Terunofuji return to the Ozeki rank with a yusho?

This looks to be the most accurate so far.

Nah, Hakuho will do it. Kisenosato still shaky, Kakuryu demoralized, and Harumafuji will give himself some well deserved rest. It's not even worth to mention the ozeki and below.

So, we know the yusho winners for 2017 already....

Jan - OZEKI Kisenosato
Mar - YOKOZUNA Kisenosato
May - Hakuho
July - Hakuho
Sept - Harumafuji
Nov - Hakuho

So, 5 wins for Yokozunas (predicted by Churaumi, Rhyen, Sumozumo, WAKATAKE, Tenshinhan, ScreechingOwl, SumpaX and Finngall.)

1 win for an Ozeki (predicted by Churaumi, WAKATAKE, Tenshinhan, ScreechingOwl, SumpaX, Finngall and Nantonoyama.)

No wins for any other rank (predicted by plenty, including Churaumi, WAKATAKE, Tenshinhan, ScreechingOwl, SumpaX and Finngall)

So, Churaumi, WAKATAKE, Tenshinhan, ScreechingOwl, SumpaX and Finngall all got six-out-of-six correct!  Omedetou!

Looking at these six players actual predictions in the comments, four of them, WAKATAKE, Tenshinhan, ScreechingOwl and SumpaX all guessed 5 out of the actual yusho winners correctly!  I don't know how to separate this quartet, and as they have all very nearly predicted the whole year, they can all share the yusho for this poll.
