Volvo Pga European Tour

VOLVO PGA EUROPEAN TOUR The Volvo Tour, sanctioned by the PGA European Tour, this year has on offer a record £13m in prize money. Starting in February, the first event was held in Portugal, moving on the United Emirates Golf Club in Dubai. The decision by the USPGA to restrict European players to only five tournaments a year, apart from the majors, unless they are prepared to contract for 15 events has persuaded Faldo, Langer and Ballesteros to opt for the European circuit in 1990. European golf has become such a force in the last few years, stamped by two wins and a retention of the Ryder Cup, that the rank and file US Tour pros are more than happy to vote the players on this side of the Atlantic out of a chance to compete for their prize fund. By restricting competition to five events for our Europeans, they no doubt hope that it will also put them at a disadvantage in preparation for the major titles. Time will tell. Sandy Lyle has decided to compete in the USA and has the potential to give them more than a run for their money. It is a hard school, and his early results have not been promising, but he has the game to help reduce Britain's dollar deficit. His progress will be watched with interest.

Snooker Aus Wikipedia, Der Freien Enzyklopädie

Snooker aus Wikipedia, der freien Enzyklopädie Wechseln zu: Navigation, Suche Ronnie O’Sullivan Snooker ist eine Variante des Präzisionssports Billard, welche mit speziellen Queues auf einem 12-Fuß-Billardtisch mit sechs Taschen gespielt wird. Das Spielprinzip besteht darin, 15 rote und sechs andersfarbige Bälle („die Farben“) mit dem weißen Spielball nach bestimmten Regeln in die Taschen zu versenken. Der Name Snooker bezieht sich auf eine „Snooker“ genannte Spielsituation, in welcher ein Spieler einen Ball, den er laut Regeln anspielen müsste, nicht auf direktem Wege in vollem Umfang anspielen kann und so zu einer schwierigeren Lösung gezwungen ist (er wurde gesnookert). Das Wort snooker hat aus dieser Bedeutung heraus auch im übertragenen Sinne Eingang in die englische Sprache gefunden (to snooker somebody: „jemanden sperren, behindern“). Snooker hat verglichen mit anderen populären Formen des Billard einen höheren technischen Schwierigkeitsgrad und stellt größere Anforderungen an die spieltaktischen Fähigkeiten der Spieler. Die höhere technische Schwierigkeit ergibt sich hauptsächlich aus der im Vergleich zu vielen anderen Billardvarianten größeren Fläche des Spieltisches, aus dem kleineren Durchmesser der Kugeln und daraus, dass die Taschen weiter in die Banden eingezogen und enger sind als etwa beim Poolbillard. Das abwechselnde Anspielen von roten und nichtroten Bällen und das angestrebte Spiel auf den höchstwertigen (schwarzen) Ball erfordert darüber hinaus ein hohes Maß an Kontrolle über den weißen Spielball. Snooker gilt als „gentlemen’s sport“, da beim Snooker noch etwas mehr als bei anderen Billardvarianten auf Stil, Contenance und die Einhaltung der Etikette Wert gelegt wird. Bei den meisten großen Turnieren ist zudem förmliche Kleidung mit Hemd, Weste und Fliege vorgeschrieben (dresscode).
