Yusho contenders

Three men at the top of their game in the recent Haru Basho were kadoban ozeki Terunofuji, ozeki hopeful Takayasu and new Yokozuna Kisenosato.
Stablemates Kisenosato and Takayasu thrilled the Osaka audience by holding the lead jointly unbeaten after 10 days. When first Takayasu and then
Kisenosato subsequently faltered, Terunofuji was firmly back in the contest. Kisenosato continued despite suffering a shoulder injury in his loss to
Harumafuji and Terunofuji continued following his bout with Kakuryu in which he reinjured his knee. In a thrilling climax, Kisenosato beat
Terunofuji in their final-day bout and again in the play-off which ensued.
