Tiger Woods. Lance Armstrong. Asashoryu.

Tiger Woods has 10 majors, including 2 out of 3 this year.
Lance Armstrong is about to win his 7th straight Tour de France.
But is Asashoryu the most dominant of them all?

I would have said yes, but then he went and lost a match on Sunday, getting flipped and losing by a head to Bulgarian Koto'oshu (see picture). Wait a minute -- Lance hasn't won a single stage and Tiger only came in second at the US Open, while Asashoryu's record is up to 52-2 for the year, and he now stands all alone at the top of the standings in the Nagoya tournament, on track for a perfect 4-for-4 in championships this year.

Meanwhile, contenders have been dropping like flies. Kaio lost a match after a (legal) head butt opened a massive cut on his eye, but he came back with wins after that. But both Chiyotaikai and Hakuho (who was looking as good as ever at 6-1 until he injured his foot) had to drop out of the tournament. Iwakiyama was 6-0, until he got hurt and he dropped out, too.

Of the wrestlers left, Asashoryu leads at 8-1. His only loss was to Koto'oshu at 7-2. Also at 7-2 are Kaio (who got lucky and got a free win when Hakuho dropped out today) and Wakanosato, who lost to Asashoryu today. The final wrestler with 7 wins is none other than everybody's favorite Takamisakari. The crowds will be crazy if he can keep it going for a few more days. Final contender is the other Ozeki Tochiazuma at 6-3. Kotomitsuki is the biggest disappointment left. Nearing Ozeki promotion coming in, he's only 4-5 so far.
Match of the day tomorrow: Kaio vs. Wakanosato
