Pictures posted today to the Sumo Kyokai’s twitter feed show the advanced state of progress of dohyo construction for the Haru Basho in Osaka. We are just a few days away from the start of the March tournament, and excitement among sumo fans is growing. Team Tachiai expect the day 1 torikumi later this week, followed by the dohyo matsuri, which may or may not be live streamed this time.
