The Haru Jungyo was held at Yasukuni Shrine in Tokyo on the 13th, and Yokozuna Oonosato (25 = Nishonoseki) will be absent from the tour on the 15th (Kashima City, Ibaraki Prefecture) due to left shoulder pain. The tour manager, Takadagawa Oyakata (former Sekiwake Akinoshima), acknowledged it. Regarding the condition of the injury, the Yokozuna said, "I'm okay." While saying, "I'm taking care of and preparing," he also told Wakamatsu Oyakata, the deputy head of the tour, that "it's tough to endure." Takadagawa Oyakata also added, "I want him to recover properly and be ready to fight in the May basho." He had to withdraw from the previous basho due to a "left shoulder subluxation." During this tour, he was mainly doing basic exercises. Fujinokawa also had to withdraw due to neck pain.
