Yoshinofuji from Kumamoto is enthusiastic about Yokozuna Dai-no-Sato aiming for consecutive championship at Grand Sumo Kyushu venue

On the 27th, Yokozuna Ohnosato and others who are attending the Kyushu Sumo Tournament (first day on November 8th, Fukuoka International Center) responded to the press in Fukuoka City.

On this day, a sumo wrestler meeting consisting of Sekitori members was held. Onosato won the Autumn Tournament in September for the first time in a year. However, he had never won the championship at the Kyushu tournament, and he said, ``It's been a long time since I won, so the next place will be important. I want to finish this year on a good note.''

On the other hand, Yoshinofuji, a native of Kumamoto Prefecture who returned to Sanyaku Komusubi, became a regular player and said with a smile, ``I'm glad to be able to return (to Sanyaku) at the Kyushu tournament.'' At the Autumn Tournament, they suffered five consecutive losses from the first day, but they bounced back and won nine wins and six losses. ``My master tells me that I don't have a sense of stability. I practice while thinking about how to create a sense of stability.''

At the end of July, a major earthquake struck my hometown, Kumamoto. When asked by the press, ``Do you want to show that you're working hard?'', he answered with a strong nod, ``Yes, I am. I'm coming all the way from Kumamoto to see it.''
