Atamifuji no longer swordbearer for Tero?
I know Tero has since dropped out of this basho, but I was sad to see that Takerufuji replacing Atami as Tero's tachimochi during the ring-entering ceremonies. Tak's definitely got the better record in hindsight this basho, but Atami is technically a higher-ranked Maegashira, even higher than Midorifuji, who continues to perform his tsuyuharai (dew-sweeper) duties. Any insight as to this switch?
