Sporting Countdown Sheep Reveal Thread

Zaph

Welcome to my first ever reveal thread. Just getting that in early in case it all goes tits-up at some stage.

Thanks everyone for playing, a quick reminder of the questions, the number corresponding to the number of possible answers for that question:

15 Name one of Tiger Woods' major wins (tournament and year)
14 Name a Pro 14 rugby club
13 Name a rugby league position
12 Name an NFL team that has never won the Super Bowl (franchises that have moved/changed name will be grouped under current name)
11 Name a country/group that has won a Winter Olympics medal of any colour for the skeleton
10 Name a British Formula One world motor racing champion
9 Name a baseball fielding position (i.e. any position other than batter)
8 Name an Irish cycling Grand Tour (Tour de France, Giro d'Italia or Vuelta a Espana) stage winner
7 Name a netball position
6 Name a sport that Ireland has won a Summer Olympics medal in (e.g. cycling, rather than specific event such as men's road race)
5 Name an Irish/Northern Irish golfer who has won a major since 2000
4 Name one of the titles a boxer must hold to be considered an undisputed world champion (all identified by 3 letters)
3 Name one of the cities, other than Tokyo, that hosts a sumo honbasho (professional tournament) each year
2 Name one of the individual men's ski jumping competitions at the Winter Olympics

Yeah, I already have my full 5 hour reveal timetable planned out. It took me 8 hours to do that and I'd hate to see all that work go to waste.

Both I and the Sheepulator have been fed, so it's time to kick things off. Thanks to all who entered, and best of luck!

15 Name one of Tiger Woods' major wins (tournament and year)

Let’s face it, there’s only two you could have gone for here really, isn’t there? So did you go for young Tiger’s first major?


Or did you go for old Tiger’s most recent?


Or did you decide to make things a bit more difficult for yourself from the very start…?

Hopefully my score isn't as embarrassing as the Ireland game yesterday was

Fair play Purgative, picked the one I wanted to pick but I couldn't risk it

Putgative's seeming loyalty makes me feel like even more of a traitor than when I entered Leinster

Purgative

I went with loyalty - big mistake

Having seen the Serbia game during the week I decided not to watch the match last night. Best decision I've made in a long time.

Zaph

13 Name a rugby league position

On to the better of the rugbys , are you a fan of props?



Or maybe hookers are more your thing?

No, you have to stay true to yourself

Ah but you have moral high ground (any maybe a wooden spoon if you kept that strategy up )

Widest spread of answers so far for this question. Maybe you’re a fan of the team named after William Cody?



Or how about them Cardinals?

11 Name a country/group that has won a Winter Olympics medal of any colour for the skeleton

In fairness, anyone who does this either deserves a medal or a padded cell. And while there are no wrong answers in sheep, Purgative did their best to disprove that.
