Attendees at the Grand Sumo Tournament have been warned about the dangers of falling wrestlers if they get too close to the ring at the five-day event. Organisers have also warned that sand could fly out from the stage as the athletes compete to push their opponent out of the ring. More than 40 Japanese sumo wrestlers, also known as maku-uchi rikishi, will take part in the tournament in west London.
Tarasenko's impressive journey to Japan reflects his ambition and dedication to becoming a grand champion sumo wrestler, marking a significant achievement for British representation in the sport.
