[sumo] [spoiler]Still more on the One-day tournament



It appears there was a three way-tomoesen (playoff of more than two) between the three foreigners in Juryo. Hakuhou beat Kasugaou, then Rohou, to take the Juryo championship and the 500,000 yen($4734) that comes with it.

Asashouryuu left the Kkan after his championship, as he fastened his new 2 million yen golden sash, promising that "yakiniku party" to the lower ranked in Takasago.

Ex- Yokozuna Musashimaru did his dohyo- iri at the tournament. "Hey that was fun!! I might return!", he exclaimed. This, after receiving lots of loud support from the fans, much more than the other active rikishi got.. He hasn't shed a gram of his 232 kilos. "Well, I've been thinking about it, but I don't want to lose weight and have people think I'm sick or something", he jested, probably thinking of that final dohyo-iri at his danpatsu-shiki slated for October the second.
