More on kinboshiA kinboshi, or gold star, is a maegashira's win over a yokozuna. Sanyaku wrestlers don't earn one for beating a yokozuna, and neither does a win by default or disqualification. Under the association's older pay rules, each kinboshi added to the bonus a wrestler was paid every tournament, for as long as he stayed a sekitori.
