ABOUT WESTCHESTER COUNTRY CLUB Three-time U.S. Amateur champion Walter J. Travis laid out the two 18-hole golf courses at Westchester Country Club, just 30 miles outside New York City, that opened in 1922. The courses were built by the Philadelphia-based architectural firm of Toomey and Flynn who built the modern course at Shinnecock Hills toward the end of the same decade. The club joined the USGA on Jan. 13, 1922, several months before the courses opened for play that summer. The West Course has hosted many memorable golf events over its history. Beginning with the 1923 U.S. Women’s Amateur, the course went on to host 44 PGA Tour events. The Thunderbird Classic came to Westchester in 1963, with Arnold Palmer and Jack Nicklaus winning two of the first three years.

  • How Has Government and Corporate Investment Impacted on Eshibobo Football Club in the Context of the Build up to the 2010 FIFA World Cup?
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Wits Institutional Repository on DSPACE How has government and corporate investment impacted on eShibobo Football Club in the context of the build up to the 2010 FIFA World Cup? Alexander Kostopoulos (338173) A research report submitted to the Faculty of Humanities at the University of the Witwatersrand, Johannesburg, in partial fulfilment for the Degree of Master of Arts. Johannesburg, November 2009 i Declaration I herewith declare that this thesis is my own unaided work. It is submitted for the degree of MA in Sociology at the University of the Witwatersrand, Johannesburg. It has not been submitted before for any other degree or exam in any other University. It has also not previously been published in any form. Alex Kostopoulos University of the Witwatersrand, Johannesburg 12 August 2009 ii Abstract This research has explored some of the effects that the build up to the 2010 Football World Cup to be hosted in South Africa has had on a local soccer club, eShibobo Football Club (FC)1. Much hope has been placed on this tournament to bring prosperity and overall regional development to South Africa through increased foreign investment, tourism, and improved infrastructure. Using qualitative research methods in the form of field interviews and documentary analysis, the research suggests that the increased revenue earnings of eShibobo FC can be partially linked to South Africa’s hosting of the 2010 World Cup. With this increased revenue the club has been able to spend larger amounts on player salaries, established a comprehensive youth development programme, created links with foreign clubs, and invested in technology to assist the coaching and playing staff.

And now for the Curtis Cup. In the past the United States has won six Curtis Cup Matches to Britain's two, and the 1936 series at Gleneagles, Scotland, re- sulted in a tie at 4% points each.

The brand’s enduring relationship with the game began more than 50 years ago, in 1967, with Arnold Palmer, joined by Jack Nicklaus and Gary Player. Known together as The Big Three, these legendary players changed the face of golf forever, and their partnership with Rolex marked the beginning of a relationship based on a commitment to continuous im- provement and unwavering precision. Since then, the affiliation between Rolex and golf has grown into one with a global reach. Rolex is now part of the very fabric of golf and supports the game at all levels, including elite players and legends of the game, Major cham- pionships, the foremost professional tours and the world’s leading team competitions. Rolex’s support for golf is governed by underlying values of integrity and respect for tradition that ensure the continuity of exper- tise and knowledge, while understanding the importance of investing in the development of sport for future generations. As such, the Swiss watchmaker extends its support to amateur tournaments, international federations and organizations representing golfers of all ages. The as- sociation between Rolex and golf stands for quality, elegance, reliability and a pioneering spirit. Please note that the following information is in line with the “traditional” golfing calendar.
