2015.1.26

It was cloudy.

I should have mentioned yesterday, but Yokozuna Hakuho (横綱 白鵬) became a champion at the first ground sumo championships of this year.
This was his 33rd victory, which is the best record in the sumo world.
What is more, he won 15 matches straight,which was the 11th total winning for him after 10 tournaments. Congratulations!!
There were 1625 prizes in this first tournament which was the most in history and for the last match between Hakuho and Kakuryu(鶴竜) there were 61 prizes which exceeded the maximum limit of 50.
He will be 30 years old in March.
So we can expect more new records will be made in the future.
