Mongolian Asashoryu wins one-day sumo meet 

The Associated Press  
Sunday, February 10, 2008 
TOKYO: Grand champion Asashoryu of Mongolia  beat compatriot Tokitenku on 
Sunday to win a one-day sumo  tournament.
Asashoryu overpowered Miyabiyama in the semifinals before facing  Tokitenku 
in the final at Ryogoku Kokugikan.
Asashoryu lost to compatriot  Hakuho on the final day of the New Year Grand 
Sumo Tournament last month in his  return to sumo after serving a 
two-tournament suspension for playing in a  charity soccer tournament in Mongolia.
Asashoryu, who has won 21 Emperor's  Cups, became the first wrestler to win 
the annual one-day event three times in a  row.
Hakuho started the one-day event from the second round but made an early  
exit after losing his first bout to Tokitenku, who defeated Bulgarian ozeki  
Kotooshu in the semifinals.
