Hatsu Basho 2025 - Winners
|
Makuuchi Yusho: | M11 Yamashiro (12-3, 98) | Juryo Yusho: | J7 Genya (10-5, 95) | Makushita Yusho: | m46 Ketsukai (12-3, 96) | Gino-sho: | M11 Yamashiro (12-3, 98) | Kanto-sho: | M11 Yamashiro (12-3, 98) | Shukun-sho: | not awarded |
The Makushita yusho was randomly decided in favor of m46 Ketsukai. I believe it is the second time that a yusho had to be determined randomly. It also happened in the 2018 Nagoya Basho.

Hatsu Basho 2025 - Day 15
|
Yamashiro came through the final day with ease to take his third Makuuchi yusho by two clear wins. He can enjoy a nice jump up the banzuke in March! | In Juryo three out of the five hopefuls won their bouts today. Genya won the tie-break by virtue of his superior score. | And we have a very unusual situation in Makushita. As with Juryo, three of the five contenders won. Ketsukai and Sasuke both scored the same, and also did not meet each other in the tournament. Further, they scored exactly the same 8+, 5- and perfect days and therefore, for the first time as far as I know, the yusho will be determined randomly. The gamesmaster will announce the winner in due course. Amazing! | Congratulations to all the winners. See you back here in March!

Hatsu Basho 2025 - Day 14
|
Yamashiro won again and is one win ahead of Trender and Andrasoyama. None of these three fight each other on the final day. A win for Yamashiro would mean yusho. A loss would allow his rivals in. Trender is slightly ahead in scoring and Andrasoyama is even so a tie-break scenario could be very close. | Juryo is very open as the five leaders have 9-5 records. Shironami is four points ahead of the others so advantage to him! | It's a similar story in Makushita. Five leaders and plenty of permutations in play. A tie-break again looks very likely here. Terarno is one ahead of Sasuke in that regard. | A special mention to Chocshoporyu, who leads Makuuchi in scoring and is second in all divisions but is now 5-9. I've seen some terrible luck in this game over the years but that is a contender for the worst of all time. | Good luck to all the yusho hopefuls!

Hatsu Basho 2025 - Day 13

Yamashiro returned to winning ways to go one win clear in the yusho race. Ozeki Kakushoyamaii lost today and he joins a chasing group of six, each with nine wins. | Genda and Chindonya now lead Juryo with 9-6 records. And Terarno is still clear in Makushita. With his high scoring, one more win may be enough.

The top two on the leaderboard lost but Yamashiro retains sole lead. Ozeki Kakushoyamaii is part of a gang of four one win behind. | Chindonya lost in Juryo and is joined now by Hagenosenshi, both with 8 wins. Terarno now leads the Makushita division all by himself with a 10-1 record.
