Pick a day

What to watch on day 15

Picked by rules, without this day's results. Some reasons use how the tournament is going.

  1. Hakuho vs Harumafuji
    Hakuho leads the tournament at 11-3, and Harumafuji is just one loss behind.
  2. Takekaze vs Takanoiwa
    Takekaze and Takanoiwa are both 7-7: one secures kachi-koshi and the other ends with make-koshi.
  3. Kisenosato vs Kotoshogiku
    Ōzeki against ōzeki: Kisenosato vs Kotoshogiku.
  4. Terunofuji vs Aoiyama
    Terunofuji leads the tournament at 11-3: a slip would tighten the yūshō race.
  5. Tochiozan vs Okinoumi
    Tochiozan is one win from kachi-koshi (7-7).
