Abi took his 1st loss today in Juryo.

Looks like Enho just can't get it done more.

At the rate he's going, he won't even be in Juryo much longer
That stinks about Enho.

Enho now 2-7 after 9 days in Juryo.

Hakuho and Terunofuji still building to the drama of an undefeated Showdown hopefully.

Wakatakakage really having a rough time this tourney after his promotion. He’s in trouble tomorrow, he has Hakuho.

Teru and Hakuho still unbeaten after 11 days.

Abi gets his Kachi-Koshi in Juryo. Hoshoryu gets his today too with a win over Shodai.

The wins by the two leaders ensured one of them would win the tournament. Because they will square off over the weekend, both can't finish with three losses.

May 9-6
July 3-9 so far

He's having a rough go for sure, although that's not so unusual for a sanyaku debut

Really pulling for Terunofuji to do this. It would be one of the biggest stories in sumo history if he could reach yokozuna after falling so far.

Incidentally, Terunofuji originally trained in judo back in Mongolia, and his coach, who had connections to the sumo world, saw good potential in him for sumo. That coach happened to be Hakuho's father!

That’s so cool.

If Terunofuji wins his next 2 then I honestly don’t think it matters if he loses on day 15, he’ll get promoted finishing in second place with 14 wins.

Agreed. Also, how great is it to have a sport where the 2nd place might actually gets a raise and a more respectful position. It's really refreshing.

It’s all set up for tomorrow winner takes the tournament between Terunofuji and Hakuho.

Even if he loses I don’t see Terunofuji not get promoted, he deserves it in my opinion.

Haru Basho: Winner at 12-3
Natsu Basho: Winner at 12-3
Nagoya Basho: either wins at 15-0 or finishes second at 14-1

On the other end of the spectrum we may see:

Daiamami demoted to Juryo
Chiyonokuni may be demoted to Juryo if he loses tomorrow
Wakatakakage losing his Komusubi rank
