In fact, more than R C O I L 700,000 fans on-site make the US Open the world’s largest-attended annual sporting event, and U I T N more than 53 million online visitors plus a global television audience share in the thrill and excite - Y D & ment each year.

    Cutting the Russian Bear down to size on the graveyard of champions – An analysis of the metaphors used in the 2002 Official Wimbledon Film Torben Schmidt, Frankfurt ([email protected]) Abstract Sports reports on the radio, on television, or in newspapers are usually characterized by very vivid language full of metaphorical terms and expressions. After an introduction to the most prominent metaphor theories, this paper focuses on an analysis of metaphor usage in an English tennis report. Based on a quantitative and qualitative analysis of the spoken commentary of the 2002 Official Wimbledon Film, the aim of this paper is to establish how many and what kind of metaphors are typically used in this film, to which image donor fields the different metaphors belong, and how certain metaphors interact with each other within the commentary. Sportkommentare in Rundfunk, Fernsehen und Zeitungen sind in der Regel geprägt von einer sehr lebhaften Sprache, die reich an metaphorischen Ausdrücken und Formulierungen ist. Der Schwerpunkt des vorliegenden Artikels liegt nach einer Beschreibung der bekanntesten Arbeiten zur Metapherntheorie auf einer Analyse des Gebrauchs von Metaphern in einer Englischen Tennisreportage: Basierend auf einer quantitativen und qualitativen Untersuchung des Kommentars des offiziellen Wimbledon-Films aus dem Jahre 2002 soll hierbei herausgefunden werden, welche Metaphern in diesem Film typischerweise verwendet werden, zu welchen übergeordneten Bildspenderkategorien sich einzelne Metaphern zusammenfassen lassen und wie Metaphern innerhalb des analysierten Kommentars miteinander verknüpft sind. 1. Introduction No doubt because of its tradition and very special flair, the Wimbledon tennis tournament has become the biggest and most popular tennis event in the world.

  • 7.–13. 6. Tenisové Kurty Slovana Bratislava Dotácia: 66 640 €
    7.–13. 6. tenisové kurty Slovana Bratislava Dotácia: 66 640 € Udržať sériu ATP je vždy výzva Hlavný organizátor bratislavského turnaja Branislav Stankovič udržal kontinuitu podujatia aj v čase pandémie. A to aj napriek rok trvajúcim obmedzeniam. Vlani sa turnaj Bratislava Open uskutočnil mimo challengerovej série ATP iba s domácou konkurenciou, tohto roku sa vracia tradičný medzinárodný formát. Kooperativa Bratislava Open sa uskutoční 7. – 13. júna 2021 na dvorcoch Slovana opäť ako súčasť série challengerov ATP. Bude to už 18. ročník podujatia pod taktovkou Stankoviča, ktorému pomáhajú Miloslav Mečíř a Marián Vajda, generační druhovia a priatelia z profesionálnych tenisových rokov. „Udržať turnaj v sérii ATP je vždy veľká výzva. Vlani sa nedalo cestovať pre koronavírus, ale vďaka partnerom sme usporiadali turnaj pre našich najlepších tenistov a po prvý raz aj pre ženy. Teraz sme v neistote čakali aká bude epidemická situácia. Vo februári padlo rozhodnutie, že sa challenger Kooperativa Bratislava Open uskutoční,“ popisuje kľúčový čas pre definitívu Branislav Stankovič. Pôvodne sa v Bratislave malo hrať v termíne po Roland Garros. Pravda, štart grandslamového turnaja posunuli pre zlú epidemickú situáciu vo Francúzsku o týždeň. Uskutoční sa od 30. mája do 13. júna 2021. Znamená to, že bratislavský challenger sa hrá paralelne s druhým týždňom v Paríži. „Challengerové turnaje namiesto 4 týždňov nahustili do 3 týždňov. Náš nový termín od 7. júna výdatne pomohol vylobovať Marián Vajda. Z hľadiska antukárov je to veľmi dobrý termín,“ poznamenáva Stankovič. Pavúk kvalifikácie bude 16-členný a hlavného turnaja 32-členný (naposledy v roku 2019 bol 48-členný). Turnajová dotácia sa nezmenila (tohto roku 66 640 €), hospitality sa rozšírilo aj na kvalifikáciu.
