Japan's Only Sumo Grand Master Terunofuji To Retire
Sumo is facing a potential chasm at the top of the ancient sport for the first time in over 30 years after the only yokozuna, Terunofuji, announced his retirement on Friday. The Mongolian-born 33-year-old has struggled with injuries and withdrew from the ongoing New Year Grand Sumo Tournament in Tokyo on Thursday after forfeiting his bout. He told reporters that he was retiring to train young wrestlers after "a tough 14 years" in the ring.
