September 1:04 | 0 x gelesen | 0 Kommentare Hohmann gewinnt 14-1 World-Tournament Turnierbericht 14-1 World-Tournament von Thomas Ramseyer - swissbillard.ch In verschiedenen Formen und unter verschiedenen Patronaten wird in den USA seit Jahrzehnten ein grosses 14-1 Pool Turnier gespielt. In den 90er Jahren fand es in New-York statt und lief unter dem Namen US Open 14-1. Seit 2006 wird das Turnier von Dragon-Promotions in New-Brunswick (NJ) ausgetragen. Der Name World Straight Pool Championship wurde in World-Tournament abgeändert. Es handelt sich um keine offizielle 14-1 Weltmeisterschaft, hat aber quasi diesen Charakter, da kein anderes vergleichbares Turnier gespielt wird. Tausende von Kugel in den Gruppenspielen Gespielt wurde in acht Achtergruppen. Jeweils die besten vier qualifizierten sich für ein 32 KO Finaltableau. Die ehemals dominierenden US-Amerikaner hatten das Geschehen schon vor 20 Jahren aus der Hand gegeben, seither wird 14-1 hauptsächlich von Europäern dominiert. Oliver Ortmann gewann das Turnier im letzten Jahr und auch 2007. Der diesjährige Sieger Thorsten Hohmann reüssierte auch schon 2006 als das Turnier erstmals von Dragon Promotions ausgerichtet wurde. Die Amerikaner kamen immer nahe an den Final, scheiterten jedoch regelmässig in der letzten Runde. Jonny Archer wurde 2009 dritter, genau wie Danny Harriman 2007 oder Max Eberle im Jahr zuvor. Zeitweilig wurde das Turnier in einem Damen und einem Herrenfeld ausgetragen, das ist schon lange nicht mehr der Fall. Dieses Mal waren keine Damen eingeschrieben, doch 2008 wurde Jasmin Ouschan sensationell dritte. Beim Stande von 142:11 hat Alex Pagulayan diesen Break-Ball verschossen.

While Japan certainly possess talented players and have not missed a World Cup since their 1998 debut, they consistently underwhelm once they arrive at the big show. This summer may not be any different for them, especially given the turmoil in terms of the now former head coach Vahid Halilhodzic being sacked one month ago. With players like Shinji Kagawa, or Keisuke Honda, Genki Haraguchi, or even Leicester City’s Shinji Okasaki, Japan will field the talent to win games.

In 1985, the Sammi Superstars became known as the Cheongbo Pintos. The next year, 1986, saw some major changes, with the OB Bears moving from Daejeon to share the Seoul's Jamsil Baseball Stadium with MBC Chungyong in Seoul. A new franchise, the Binggrae Eagles, joined to replace vacancy of Daejeon by OB's moving and expanding the league to seven franchises. 1988 saw the Cheongbo Pintos change ownership again, becoming the Pacific Dolphins. In 1990, MBC Chungyong became the LG Twins and an eighth franchise was added, the Ssangbangwool Raiders who represented the Jeollabuk-do region. There was little change in the 90's except for a few major sponsors: 1993 saw the Binggrae Eagles become the Hanwha Eagles, in 1995 the Pacific Dolphins became the Hyundai Unicorns and the OB Bears in 1999 became the Doosan Bears. Bigger changes were affected in 2000 when the Hyundai Unicorns moved from Incheon to Suwon, and a new franchise, the SK Wyverns took their place in Incheon. The Ssangbangwool Raiders became defunct. In 2001, the Haitai Tigers became the Kia Tigers. In 2008, the Hyundai Unicorns franchise was sold, renamed the Woori Heroes and moved to Mok-dong in Seoul, after a disappointing season in 2007 both on and off the field.
