Onosato defeated sekiwake Abi, right, by pushing him out of the dohyo ring on the final day of the tournament. He recorded 12 wins and three losses. This victory in his seventh tournament since his debut in the makushita division marks the fastest championship in grand sumo history. It was also the first time in 67 years that a championship was won by a new komusubi wrestler.
