Hananoumi Ken
Hananoumi Ken (born 6 December 1960 as Ken Sawaishi) is a former sumo wrestler from Ikawa, Akita, Japan. He made his professional debut in May 1976, and reached the top division in March 1985. His highest rank was ''komusubi''. He retired in July 1989. ==Career== He was persuaded by his father, a rice farmer, to be a sumo wrestler, although he really wanted to play baseball. He joined the original Hanakago stable in May 1976, and for five years he was a ''tsukebito'' or personal attendant to ''yokozuna'' Wajima Hiroshi, until the latter′s retirement in 1981. The two spent much of their spare time tinkering with Wajima′s luxury American automobile, a Lincoln Continental.〔 Sawaishi began competing under his own surname, although he went through a number of different ''shikona'', including Otowadake, Sawakaze and Onoumi, before finally settling on Hananoumi, meaning ′lake or sea of flowers.′〔 In July 1983 he took the ''makushita'' division championship with a perfect 7–0 record and was promote to the ''juryo'' division, becoming a fully fledged ''sekitori'' for the first time. He reached the top ''makuuchi'' division in March 1985 and just one tournament later won his first ''sansho'' or special prize, for Technique. In November 1985 he had his first victory over a ''yokozuna'', earning a ''kinboshi'' for defeating tournament winner Chiyonofuji. In March 1987 he beat Chiyonofuji again, scored ten wins at ''maegashira'' 1 and won his second Technique Award, and with it promotion to what was to be his highest rank of ''komusubi''. In September 1987 he achieved the feat of winning a majority of wins against losses (''kachi-koshi'') despite missing four days and having to return for the last seven – the first time this had been done in the top division for 22 years.
