  • VIVENDI TROPHY Continental Europe Vs
    VIVENDI TROPHY Continental Europe vs. Great Britain and Ireland The Duel, 15-18 September, 2011 Saint-Nom-La-Bretèche (France) Press release – 18th May, 2011 In the spirit of Severiano Ballesteros Vivendi today announced that Jean Rene Fourtou, Chairman of the Vivendi Supervisory Board, has suggested to the PGA European Tour that the "Vivendi Trophy with Seve Ballesteros" be renamed to "The Vivendi Seve Trophy", in memory of Severiano Ballesteros who really knew, amongst other things, how to develop and support the spirit of match play and Golf as an all-round game. During the day's press conference, Scott Kelly, Marketing Director of the PGA European Tour emotionally welcomed the change on behalf of the PGA European Tour. The 2011 Vivendi Trophy The Vivendi Trophy takes place every two years, alternating with the Ryder Cup. The Vivendi Trophy 2011 will take place from 15th to 18th September at the Saint-Nom-La- Bretèche Golf Course. Following the success of its 2009 version, the second edition of this great competition, initiated and organised by CANAL+ EVENTS, will once again put the 10 best players in Continental Europe in a head to head with the elite of Great Britain and Ireland. A new champion at the helm Jose Maria Olazabal will succeed Colin Montgomerie as the Ryder Cup 2012 Team Captain. The Spanish champion will then head the Seve Trophy 2011. "Txema" may, like Monty did in 2009, oversee and observe the two teams. This arrival is also highly symbolic: we all remember the achievements of the fearsome pair in the Ryder Cup with Olazabal and Ballesteros.

  • Audemars Piguet Ambassador Renato Paratore Wins the Nordea Masters at Age 20
    AUDEMARS PIGUET AMBASSADOR RENATO PARATORE WINS THE NORDEA MASTERS AT AGE 20 Renato Paratore wears a Royal Oak in steel with blue dial Ref. 15400ST.OO.1220ST.03 Le Brassus, Monday 5th June 2017 – Renato Paratore won his first European Tour Title in Malmö, Sweden at the Nordea Masters on Sunday June 4th. Renato displayed impressive composure under pressure as he battled to regain the lead and beat Chris Wood and Matt Fitzpatrick by one shot. He carded a 3 under for the day, finishing at 11 under for the tournament. Having started the day one shot behind, Paratore birdied back-to-back holes before the turn and added two more birdies on the back nine. He saved par on 18 after he reached the green on his second shot, recovering from his wayward drive. The Audemars Piguet Ambassador Renato Paratore, aged 20, is the youngest winner on Tour since Matteo Manassero, an Italian compatriot, claimed the BMW PGA Championship in 2013. This victory comes as no surprise for the young Roman as everybody expected the best from him since he reached the quarterfinals of the British Amateur Championship at Royal Cinque Ports in 2013. "I couldn't be happier right now. I really enjoyed this win," Paratore said. "I was one behind the leader so I thought if I played well I could win. In these tough conditions I kept a good attitude until the end." This first title is the result of hard work and incredible passion for the game. Also known to be the quickest player on the European Tour, Renato Paratore embodies Audemars Piguet’s brand philosophy “To break the rules, you must first master them”.

  • Persistence in the Official World Golf Rankings
    PERSISTENCE IN THE OFFICIAL WORLD GOLF RANKINGS A THESIS Presented to The Faculty of the Department of Economics and Business The Colorado College In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Bachelor of Arts By Mason Bergh December 2018 PERSISTENCE IN THE OFFICIAL WORLD GOLF RANKINGS Mason Bergh December 2018 Economics Abstract This paper builds on decades of hot hand effect research. Belief in persistent success or failure is common in sports despite a lack of statistical evidence supporting the phenomenon. Using weekly ranking data for 60 professional golfers around the world, this study deploys an ordinary least squares regression to analyze if persistent rank movement exists in the Official World Golf Rankings. This study hypothesizes that persistence does not exist outside of chance because significant evidence is needed to support the existence of streaks in golf ranks. Like previous studies, the results suggest that streaks do occur, but true statistical evidence to reject the hypothesis was not present. KEYWORDS: (Persistence, Hot hand, Official World Golf Rankings, Golf) JEL CODES: Z21, L83 ii ACKNOWLEDGMENTS Thank you to my family for the continuous love and support that they have shown me. Also, thank you to Neal Rappaport for his commitment and guidance throughout this process. iii ON MY HONOR, I HAVE NEITHER GIVEN NOR RECEIVED UNAUTHORIZED AID ON THIS THESIS Mason Bergh Signature iv TABLE OF CONTENTS ABSTRACT…………………………………………………………………………. ii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS…………………………………………………………. iii 1 INTRODUCTION……………………………………………………………...... 1 2 LITERATURE REVIEW………………………………………………………… 3 2.1 Beginning of Streak Research………………………………………………... 4 2.2 Psychological Theories………………………………………………………. 6 2.3 Literature in Golf…………………………………………………………….. 8 3 THEORY……………………………………………………………………….... 12 3.1 Model………………………………………………………………………… 12 4 DATA…………………………………………………………………………….
