Sumo: Tamawashi ends Terunofuji's unbeaten run

Kyodo -- Jan 14

Veteran No. 3 maegashira Tamawashi took advantage of a slipup to snap yokozuna Terunofuji's 23-match win streak Friday and remain within one win of the New Year Grand Sumo Tournament lead.

The win improved the 37-year-old Tamawashi's career record between the Mongolian-born grapplers to 6-10 and left both wrestlers with 5-1 records, one back of sekiwake Mitakeumi and No. 6 Abi in the 15-day tourney at Tokyo's Ryogoku Kokugikan.
