Quick Glance: Takerufuji Triumphs Despite Injury in Historic Sumo Victory
- The 24-year-old Takerufuji from Aomori Prefecture achieved an impressive record of 13-2 at Edion Arena Osaka, securing the title in the elite makuuchi division for the first time since 1914.
- He clinched his inaugural Emperor's Cup faster than any other competitor since the six annual grand tournaments calendar was adopted in 1958, following his official debut in September 2022.
- His triumph was accentuated by the challenge of competing with a severe ankle injury sustained during his defeat to Maegashira Asanoyama on Saturday, preventing him from sealing the title a day early.
- In recognition of his outstanding performance, Takerufuji received an Outstanding Performance Award, a Technique Prize, and a Fighting Spirit Prize. His path to victory included defeating multiple opponents from the three prestigious 'sanyaku' ranks below Yokozuna, including new Ozeki Kotonowaka and Sekiwake Wakamotoharu.
