[QUOTE="Swami, post: 120293, member: 13"] Goeido withdraws from summer meet, no ozeki remaining Details Written by Kyodo Category: [URL='http://www.cibersumo.com/en/sumo/history-and-data/press-room-news'][U]News[/U][/URL] Published: 21 May 2018 Hits: 20 [IMG]http://www.cibersumo.com/images/rikishis/Goeido5.jpg[/IMG] Goeido became the second ozeki to pull out of the ongoing Summer Grand Sumo Tournament on Monday, leaving no wrestler in the second-highest rank left to compete in the 15-day meet at Tokyo's Ryogoku Kokugikan. According to Goeido's stablemaster Sakaigawa, the 32-year-old wrestler from Osaka has been suffering from chronic pain in his left ankle and was diagnosed Sunday with osteochondral bone defect that will require four weeks of recovery. Goeido, who leaves with a 3-6 record, joins fellow ozeki Takayasu and yokozuna Kisenosato on the casualty list. Takayasu is out with a left upper arm injury and will fight in a demotion-threatened "kadoban" status at the Nagoya meet in July. Takayasu's Tagonoura stablemate Kisenosato, who is recovering from a left chest muscle injury, extended his streak of missed events to a yokozuna-equaling seven meets by choosing not to compete. Goeido lost his last three bouts and will forfeit his scheduled bout against sekiwake Ichinojo on Monday and be given a loss by default. For the seventh time in his career Goeido will fight as a "kadoban" ozeki in July. It is also the seventh time he will miss all or part of a meet. "I think it's his left ankle. I noticed his feet had been unable to get a firm grip on the dohyo. I told him to quit on the third day but he insisted he stay (in the tournament)," Sakaigawa said. Swami [/QUOTE]
