  • Snooker World Championship – Hall of Fame
    aus: Hugo Kastner: SNOOKER – Spieler, Regeln & Rekorde Update: Mai 2012 Snooker World Championship – Hall of Fame Es begann 1927 … 1927 wurde die erste Weltmeisterschaft im Snooker in der Camkin’s Hall in Birmingham ausgetragen. Ein Vergleich mit heute ist schier unmöglich, wenngleich mit dem legendären Joe Davis nicht nur der Initiator des Turniers, sondern gleichzeitig der für die nächsten achtzehn Jahre unschlagbare Meister dieses Sports die Trophäe sowie ₤6 10s gewann. Snooker war noch kein Breitensport, die Tische, Kugeln und Queues nicht von der heutigen Qualität und die Weltmeisterschaft trotz aller Perfektion der Champions nur eine Randnotiz in den internationalen Gazetten. Der absolute Tiefpunkt wurde in den Fünfzigerjahren erreicht, als 1952 zwei Organisationen Weltmeisterschaftsturniere veranstalteten, die Billiard Association eine „offizielle“ mit sage und schreibe zwei (!) Teilnehmern. Zwischen 1952 und 1957 fanden mäßig beachtete Matchplay- Weltturniere statt, danach erlosch das Snookerleben auf WM-Niveau für einige Jahre vollkommen. Ab 1964 waren die unregelmäßig ausgetragenen Challenge-Turniere, die alle an den Titelverteidiger John Pulman gingen, die Krönung des bescheiden dahin dümpelnden Snookerjahres. Moderne Zeiten … Crucible Theatre … Erst mit Ende der Sechzigerjahre ging man zum Knockout-Format zurück, das bei den folgenden acht Turnieren mit John Spencer, Ray Reardon und Alex Higgins drei Allzeitgrößen der Snookergeschichte zu Titelehren führte. Ab dieser Zeit darf man vom modernen Snooker sprechen, wenngleich die meisten Snooker-Kommentatoren erst ab den Turnieren von 1976 den großen Durchbruch zum Massensport zu erkennen glauben. Nun waren die WM-Matches nicht mehr über die gesamte Saison verteilt, sondern wurden über circa zwei Wochen an einem Ort durchgeführt. Der Tabakkonzern Embassy übernahm damals das Sponsoring der World Championships, die ab dem folgenden Jahr 1977 allesamt im Crucible Theatre in Sheffield durchgeführt wurden.

  • Wilmer Lawson Allison Jr W5VV *1904-1977* Wilmer Born in San
    ilmer Lawson Allison Jr W5VV *1904-1977* Wilmer born in San Antonio was an American amateur tennis champion of the 1930's. With all of this, how could our subject find W time for ham radio activities? Allison’s career was somewhat overshadowed by the arrival of Don Budge, but he was both a fine singles player and along with his frequent partner, John Van Ryn, a great doubles player. Right-handed, Allison’s greatest triumph was winning the 1935 U.S. Championship singles, defeating Fred Perry in the semi- finals and Sidney Wood in the finals. He had previously lost to Perry in the fifth set in the 1934 finals. He was ranked U.S. No.1 both years and World No.4 in 1932 and 1935. At Wimbledon, Allison lost the 1930 title to Bill Tilden. As a doubles player with partner John van Ryn, Allison won the 1929 and 1930 Wimbledon and 1935 U.S. doubles championships. Allison’s last major tournament was a 1936 quarter-final loss to Bunny Austin. At the University of Texas at Austin, Allison was the Intercollegiate tennis champion in 1927. In his 1979 autobiography Jack Kramer, who had a fine volley himself, devotes a page to the best tennis strokes he had every seen. He writes: “Forehand Volley – Wilmer Allison of Texas, who won the 1935 Forest Hills, had the best I ever saw as a kid and I’ve never seen anyone since hit one better.” George Lott, who himself won 5 U.S doubles titles as well as 2 at Wimbledon, wrote an article May 1973 issue of Tennis Magazine in which he ranked the great doubles teams and the great players.
