2014 – the year of sporting highlights. First of all the Super Bowl, then the Winter Olympics in Sotchi, followed by Formula 1, the Champions League and the World Cup. And that still leaves Wimbledon and the Tour de France to look forward to.
No matter where you look this year, the hunt is on for the Best of the Best.
No sooner was the Vince Lombardi Trophy handed over to the Seattle Seahawks than it was time for the 22nd Winter Olympic Games. Between 7 February and 23 February 2014 more than 2,500 athletes from 86 countries will be competing in 98 events for gold, silver and bronze in Sotchi.
The Formula 1 season gets underway on 16 March 2014 in Australia and there will be a total of 19 races before the season ends on 23 November 2014 in Abu Dhabi. The highlight of the season for Austrian fans will be the return of Formula 1 to the Spielbergring after an absence of eleven years.
“All in One Rhythm” is the official motto of the FIFA World Cup which will be taking place in Brazil from 12 June 2014 to 13 July 2014.
Excitement is guaranteed right from the start, as on day 2 Spain will be playing the Netherlands in a rerun of the 2010 finals.
All in all there are 64 matches to look forward to. The tournament will feature eight groups of four teams who will compete in 48 matches at the group stage of the contest. This will be followed by the knock-out games starting with the second round and continuing through the quarter finals, the semi-finals for third place and then the finals.
At Joe's Bar at the ARCOTEL Wimberger Vienna we will be showing all the big sporting highlights of the year on large screens. If you’re a sports enthusiast, it’s definitely worth dropping in. And what could be better than a cool beer and some delicious food as you share the thrills!
