    Alright everyone...Catching the Spirit Sports Trivia contest part 2.  This one has a bit more of a "rest of the world" slant as opposed to yesterday's one...but is by no means an exclusion to anyone with a good knowledge of useless sports trivia.

     

    I'd just ask that you try not to use the internet to search every question....makes it a bit more of a trivia contest as opposed to a search contest. 

     

    Same prizes as yesterday...any driver, fairway wood, putter or wedge of the winner's choice as first prize. There will also be a bonus question for 2 sleeves of balls after the first winner. The bonus question will be tied to one of the original ones.

     

    Since 1980, what major tennis tournament (of the 4 majors) featured all four finalists in singles--men and women---from the same European country. Name the tournament and  the 4 players.

     

    Only one country has won a gold medal in every summer Olympics held. Which one?

     

    In the last 25 years, how many World Superbike Championships have been won by a Ducati rider.

     

    Name the two Spanish riders to win a Grand Prix Motorcycle Championship (in what is now Moto GP---the big bikes).

     

    How many times has the host country won the world cup.

     

    Who has made the most appearances for the English national football team.

     

    Good Luck to all.
