YOKOZUNA
24
Definition
noun
- (sumo) The highest rank of sumo wrestler, above ozeki; grand champion."A yokozuna is the very highest rank in sumo – “just like Mameha's position in Gion,” as Nobu explained it to me. I had no reason to doubt him; but if Mameha ever took half as much time entering a party as these yokozuna took entering the ring, she'd certainly never be invited back."
- (sumo) A person holding the rank, either competing at the rank or retired after having achieved it."What mattered most was that, from the very top of the Nihon Sumo Kyōkai, Yokozuna Akebono had been shown respect."
