Sumo is one of Japan's most famous national sports.
Historically it was part of a ritual to the gods to encourage a plentiful harvest.
In modern times it has evolved into the sport we see on television consisting of
6 tournaments a year (3 held in Tokyo, 1 in Osaka, 1 in Nagoya and 1 in Kyushu).
In the West, interest in Sumo has increased recently due to the ever rising number
of Western wrestlers competing in these tournaments.
