Natsu Basho 2026 - Day 11
| |
Kazutoyama came through on yet another chaotic day to take the sole lead with nine wins. Sekiwake Sumio and Komusubi Barusho are part of a chasing group of seven. | | It's still Akoushousan, Takashogunther and Yuko leading Juryo with 8-3 records. Katoomaru marches imperiously on to eleven straight wins in Makushita, with only Buyosei now within striking distance.

Natsu Basho 2026 - Day 9
| |
Sekiwake Sumio is no longer zensho but he keeps up the fine work to stay in the sole lead. It's a day-nine kachikoshi for him. Five players are in pursuit, including Komusubi Kazutoyama. | | Akoushousan and Takashogunther lead Juryo with seven wins. And in Makushita we find our only remaining unbeaten player, Katoomaru.

Natsu Basho 2026 - Day 6
| |
I was only kidding on day two when I said Sekiwake Sumio needed 15 wins to reach Ozeki but he seems to be having a pop at it anyway. If anyone can do it, he can! | | This is as good a time as any to introduce Sumio to the newer gamers. He joined the game in Haru 2001 and tops most of the stats rankings, not only due to longevity but also due to formidable gaming skill and consistency. He is definitely one of the greatest ever players of this game (and personally the player I fear facing the most by a mile). | | He has actually reached the Ozeki rank twice before: a short-lived two-basho stint in 2003 and then a two-year run between 2008 and 2010. Incredibly, he has only spent one tournament outside the top division - his first ever tournament - when he won the Juryo yusho on his debut. | | No player has ever achieved a zensho yusho in the Makuuchi division but I'll keep my fingers crossed for him anyway. If probability prevails, hopefully he'll build up a nice bank of wins to make an easier run at the second top rank. A player this consistent and talented really should be in the very elite ranks. | | Returning to this tournament. Sumio is the sole leader. A group of three is in pursuit, including Komusubi Kazutoyama. | | Veterans Frinkanohana, Yuko and Terarno lead Juryo with five wins. Katoomaru is the only undefeated player left in Makushita. | | Sumio fights another legendary veteran in the form of Norizo tomorrow. Let's see how it goes!
