From his first pro tournament in July 2011 he excelled, posting only three losses in three tournaments and spending only one tournament in each of the lower divisions of jonokuchi, jonidan and sandanme.

An 8–7 record in the following November tournament and a 12–3 record in the January 2014 tournament earned him promotion to the top makuuchi division in March 2014.Makuuchi divisionTerunofuji during the September 2014 tournamentIn his makuuchi division debut he had only a 2–7 record on the 9th day. However, from then on he won six straight bouts in six days to pull out a kachi-koshi or winning tournament.
