Kyushu Basho 2026 - Day 6
It's day six and we have a sole leader in the form of Chocshoporyu, who has never won a Makuuchi yusho despite playing since the Stone Age. Can he hold his nerve? Yokozuna Kakushoyamaii and Sekiwake Reeeen are part of the chasing pack and both have good reasons to keep winning - Kakushoyamaii needs 8 wins to clear kadoban and Reeeen wants 11 wins for Ozeki promotion.
Warusaru, Hagenosenshi and Frinkanohana lead Juryo with five wins. Hinomaru is the only remaining unbeaten Makushita player - quite unusual to be down to one at this early stage.

Kyushu Basho 2026 - Day 2
Welcome to the Kyushu Basho, the final one of the year.
Congratulations to Ozeki Sumio on his promotion. He's off to a 1-1 start and will be wanting to impress on his return to the rank. Sekiwake Reeeen is on an Ozeki run and he needs 11 wins for the nod.
Scoring is all over the place after a chaotic start to proceedings. Sekiwake Kazutoyama and Sekiwake Reeeen lead the Makuuchi standings along with a group of ten Maegashira.
Good luck to all the players!

Sumio Ozeki Promotion
The Sumo Game Association has decided to promote Sumio to Ozeki. He recorded 30 wins over the past three tournaments, one short of the usual guideline of 31, but his Makuuchi championship was judged to make up the difference. It is the third time for Sumio to be promoted to Ozeki in his 25-year career. He previously served as Ozeki in 2003 and from 2008 to 2010. Congratulations!

Aki Basho 2026 - Day 15
Befitting of the two most successful players in Makuuchi this tournament, Sekiwake Sumio and Chiyobobdog produced the highest quality combined score in a thrilling 8-8 draw. Sumio came out on top to secure his eighth Makuuchi yusho, now level for the most of all time with Norizo.
In Juryo Chankoyama also scored eight to win a one-sided affair. Her Juryo yusho and 12 wins will give her a nice bump up the banzuke deep into the top division in November.
The Makushita division was closer. Danjinoumi did very well to close the points gap on Ippikiokami and they finished with 12 wins and an identical score. The tie-break went to direct bouts between them, but they did not meet each other, so we had to look at the number of 8+ days. Ippikiokami had 4 while Danjinoumi had 2 and so we have a winner! Congratulations to Ippikiokami!
On the banzuke, Sekiwake Sumio will be awaiting the decision of the gamesmaster as he has a decent case for Ozeki promotion on the back of his yusho. Komusubi Reeeen and Komusubi Andrasoyama are both on Ozeki runs in November - both will need 11 wins for the jump up.
Congratulations to all the winners!
