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. Sadanoumi vs Tomokaze
    Sadanoumi and Tomokaze are both 7-7: one secures kachi-koshi and the other ends with make-koshi.
  2. Chiyomaru vs Onosho
    Chiyomaru and Onosho are both 7-7: one secures kachi-koshi and the other ends with make-koshi.
  3. Goeido vs Kakuryu
    Yokozuna Kakuryu against ōzeki Goeido: the very top of the banzuke.
  4. Asanoyama vs Mitakeumi
    Asanoyama leads the tournament at 12-2: a slip would tighten the yūshō race.
  5. Tochinoshin vs Takayasu
    A long rivalry: 21 bouts, 12-9 to Takayasu over Tochinoshin.
