Takanowaka Yūki
Takanowaka Yūki (born 2 April 1976 as Yūki Ozaki) is a former sumo wrestler from Ikitsuki, Nagasaki, Japan. His highest rank was ''sekiwake''.
==Career==
Takanowaka was born as Yūki Ozaki, the son of a professional baseball player. In his youth he played not only baseball but also basketball, for which he was offered several scholarships. He tried sumo at the suggestion of his school's sumo club manager, who had connections with Naruto stable.〔 Takanowaka joined the stable in March 1992, making his debut alongside future ''sekiwake'' Wakanosato. As is common, he initially fought under his own surname, soon switching to "Takaozaki" before adopting the fighting name of Takanowaka in 1998. Initially weighing only , it took him several years to work his way through the lower ranks. He was promoted to the second highest ''jūryō'' division in May 1999 and reached the top ''makuuchi'' division just three tournaments later in November 1999.
Takanowaka was ranked in the top division for 34 tournaments in total, with a win-loss rate of 229-242, with 39 absences. He earned one ''kinboshi'', or gold star, by defeating ''yokozuna'' Musashimaru in May 2001, and three special prizes. His best performance was probably in November 2002 when produced a strong 11-4 record at ''komusubi'' rank and won his third Fighting Spirit prize. He was promoted to ''sekiwake'' in January 2003 and held his rank with a good 9-6 score but missed the whole of the March 2003 tournament with an injury picked up on the last day of the previous ''basho''. As a result, he was demoted to ''jūryō'' and although he quickly returned to the top division he never managed to reach the titled ''san'yaku'' ranks again. After suffering from torn cartilage in his knees his results took a downward turn. He was demoted to ''jūryō'' once again in January 2006 and the unsalaried ''makushita'' division in July 2007.
