This is because r.watershed delineates only the basins that fall entirely into the computational region. You didn't provide information about any mask, but you probably either set a too small mask or should enlarge the computational region in order to delineate also the other basins. In addiction, consider to provide at least a small buffer along the ridge line in order to allow the algorithm to work properly.
