Terunofuji, who was promoted to the 73rd Yokozuna of the sumo wrestling, performed "Tsunauchi" to make a rope to be tightened with a bales, and Terunofuji tightened the newly completed "Tsuna" and practiced with a bales.

In the Isegahama room in Koto-ku, Tokyo, about 30 people, including the Sekitori people in the room, participated in a "tethering" in which Terunofuji made a rope to tighten with a ball.



While Terunofuji and his master, Isegahama, a former yokozuna and Asahifuji, watched over, the wrestlers who tightened the red and white twisted headbands tightened the three ropes of copper wire and loosened hemp wrapped in white cloth. I matched it.



The wrestlers struck the rope while yelling "Hi, Fu, Mii" and "It, Ichi, Nii, San".



Terunofuji actually tightened the rope that had just been made, and practiced with a ball called the "Shiranui type", which was the same as when his master Isegahama was active.



Then, under the guidance of my master, I repeatedly checked my foot movements and hand movements.



After the lesson, Terunofuji responded to a telephone interview with the press, saying, "I am very grateful that everyone made it so hard. When I was watching Yokozuna dohyoku from the outside, I didn't think it would be difficult, but I actually did it. When I saw it, I felt it was so difficult. I want to practice more and show a good figure. "



According to the Japan Sumo Association, the schedule for Terunofuji to enter the votive offering at Meiji Jingu has not been decided due to the effects of the new coronavirus and other factors.
