46-year-old Rory McLeod just pulled off one of the great upsets in Crucible history when he knocked off world #4 and tournament favorite Judd Trump in the first round of the World Snooker Championship. Mcleod, who converted to Islam in 2000, refused to shake the female referee's hand at the start and end of his match. Snooker has a host of traditions and is very big on sportsmanship but the politically correct announcers completely ignored McLeod's slight.
Didnt Hitler refuse to shake Jesse Owens hands at the 1936 Summer Olympics?
Seems like he did shake hands with Owens because the Olympic Committee insisted. But he refused to ‘congratualate’ him.
Wasn’t that the billiards-type game played by Andy Capp (from the comics and the snacks)?
I hate all forms of islam, moderate, extremist or otherwise (spoiler alert:there’s only one kind of islam).
