I guess today's bouts deserve a short comment.
Especially Hakuho slapping Shodai around. Was a bit embarrassing and by the end it seemed he toyed with him, which should be below his stature (was there a message hidden in that for Terunofuji who watched the bout?). The first slap right after the tachi-ai - well actually the charge was kinda left out from the initial charge - I did not notice first, was quite quick, and the events perplexed me a bit.
Too bad for Enho. I hope he'll get his act together till next basho.
