Disappointing professionalism from World Snooker not drawing Israel in the same group with muslim countries.

Why? As far as I am aware, the draw does not take religion into account.

A bit of a silly tournament yes, but one that had $200,000 for the winning pair last time...

Wow I didn't know that. I presumed it was like the World Cup - patriotic duty and expenses. Brilliant tournament and format then....

Whilst I agree with the basic sentiment of your post, I would have struggled to use such elegant imagery.

I Think the World Cup is a good idea however for me 2 man teams and the format lets it down a bit.
A 3 Man team and longer frame format would be better

It did raise the profile of the winners.
