On Thursday evening, someone reported about Daigo Umehara's official Twitter account but we couldn't confirmed it. But then Seth Killian said next morning that the account is real.
It's suggested that the account is run by his manager or someone else since Umehara isn't known for being an Internet user and some tweets came out simultaneously in both Japanese and English.
His official site rarely updates and this could be a way to make an announcement without relying on a webmaster.
The Twitter gained more than 7,000 followers in 24 hours after the report. (It had only 200 when I saw the report.) It had 9,650 followers after 48 hours, and 10,250 followers after 3 days.
