No fewer than 14 former Ryder Cup players will sprinkle their magic on the fairways of Doha Golf Club this year as a world-class field gets ready for action at the 22nd staging of the Commercial Bank Qatar Masters which commences today.
Last year’s Ryder Cup in Paris is still fresh in the minds of most European golf fans and the man who masterminded Europe’s 17.5 - 10.5 defeat of the United States, Captain Thomas Bjørn, returns to Qatar for the 15th time, having won the event in 2011.
Bjørn, who appeared in three Ryder Cups, played in the very first edition of the Qatar Masters back in 1998, and so, too, did fellow past champion and Ryder Cup star Robert Karlsson. The tall Swede won the Mother of Pearl trophy in 2010, two years after he made his second Ryder Cup appearance at Valhalla.
Paul Lawrie is another two-time Ryder Cup star, with both his appearances in the biennial event coming in the same years he won the Commercial Bank Qatar Masters - 1999 and 2012. The former Open Champion will be joined by his Scottish compatriot Stephen Gallacher who is no stranger to winning in the Middle East with two victories at the Dubai Desert Classic to his name. Gallacher played in the victorious 2014 Ryder Cup Team on home soil at Gleneagles.
Chris Wood, Andy Sullivan and Thomas Pieters all represented Team Europe three years ago at Hazeltine National while the likes of Victor Dubuisson (2014), Nicolas Colsaerts (2012), Peter Hanson (2010, 2012), Edoardo Molinari (2010), Ross Fisher (2010), Oliver Wilson (2008) and David Howell (2004, 2006) have all donned European colours in the past.
World Number 76 Pieters has made a solid start to the season, finishing inside the top 30 in his first five events, including a share of sixth place last week at the Oman Open, and he believes there’s more to come this week in Qatar.
“My game has been feeling really good for a long time now,” said the Belgian. “I’m playing tournaments again and getting my confidence back is the main thing. I haven’t had a bad tournament yet, but last week is the first time I’ve contended in a long time and it felt great. Winning the World Cup last year was different - in an individual tournament I hadn’t been in contention and it was frustrating. I hope I can keep this feeling going.”
One of the most popular stops on Tour, the field for this week’s Commercial Bank Qatar Masters is also full of young stars hoping to add the iconic Trophy to their silverware collection. England’s Jordan Smith finished sixth in Doha on his debut two years ago and is looking to bounce back after missing the cut last year.
“I always enjoy coming to Doha Golf Club,” said Smith. “The first year I played here I had a really good performance but unfortunately I missed the cut last year so hopefully I can make that right this time around. I love the course; it’s tricky because of the windy conditions but I really enjoy the challenge.”
The Peter Harradine layout also holds fond memories for Challenge Tour graduate Erik Van Rooyen, who enjoyed a fine rookie campaign on the European Tour in 2018.
“I played really well over the first two rounds here last year but struggled at the weekend so I’d like to change that this year and continue to play well for all four rounds,” said the South African. “It’s a golf course where you’ve got to hit a lot of drivers, which suits my game, so I’m really looking forward to teeing off on Thursday. I love playing out here in the Middle East and Qatar is always a great destination on the European Tour calendar.”
With 144 players blending an intriguing mix of youth and experience, this year’s Commercial Bank Qatar Masters, taking place Thursday 7th to Sunday 10th March, is set to be another memorable addition to the tournament’s storied 22-year history.

Best Billy Wilder Movies According to IMDB
Billy Wilder was an Austrian-born American screenwriter and film director, who worked in the industry for five decades. He is still regarded as one of the versatile and brilliant directors in the industry. Modern casual movie fans might not know him or his work. Wilder’s film The Apartment was the first movie for which he won Academy Awards as a screenwriter, director, and producer. In the 1920s he wrote his first screenplay in Berlin. Then he made his directorial debut in Paris. He first co-wrote the screenplay for a comedy film Ninotchka, featuring Greta Garbo. He did his first direction for a crime drama, which was an adaptation of James M.Cain’s Double Indemnity. From the mid-50s, he mostly made films in the comedy genre.
All of Wilder’s movies were different from each other. At the same time, some could not differ in terms of the film’s tone or story. His brilliant writing skills and unique filmmaking style could be witnessed in many fantastic movies. In this article, we will talk about some of his creations according to the ratings on IMDB.
Sabrina (1954)- IMDB 7.7
Sabrina is a 1954 American romantic comedy-drama, adapted from Samuel A. Taylor and Ernest Lehman’s play Sabrina Fair in 1953. In the cast Humphrey Bogart, William Holden, and Audrey Hepburn played their respective characters perfectly. The film was also Wilder’s last released film by Paramount Pictures.
In this movie, Sabrina was the young daughter of the Larrabee family. She had a massive crush on David Larrabee for all her life. David, on the other hand, was a three-time married playboy, to try to impress almost all beautiful women. But David never paid attention to Sabrina, because for him she was still a child. In one evening, there was a party in Larrabee mansion, where Sabrina noticed David was enticing yet another woman. She was filled with anger and wrote a suicide note to his father. Fortunately, when she was trying to kill herself, David’s older brother Linus interrupted and saved her. Sabrina then sailed to France for her education. When she came back from France, she had transformed into a sophisticated and attractive woman. After that, the story was all about whether Sabrina succeeded to impress David or not?
Wilder’s lively and funny love triangle was unusual to watch on the big screen. The movie got nominations for 14 different Award categories. However, it won 5 of them, including Academy Awards for Best Costume Design-Black-and-White, Golden Globe Awards for Best Screenplay-Motion Picture, National Board of Review Awards for Top Ten Films and Best Supporting Actor, and Writers Guild of America Awards for Best Written American Comedy.
One, Two, Three (1961)- IMDB 7.9
One, Two, Three is a 1961 American comedy film written and directed by Wilder. It is based on the 1929 Hungarian one-act play named Egy, ketto, harom by Frenc Molnar, and the plot was also partly taken from Ninotchka. In the cast, there were some fine actors like James Cagney, Horst Buchholz, Pamela Tiffin, Lilo Pulver, Arlene Francis, and Leon Askin. McNamara is in a high-ranking post in the Coca-Cola Company in West Berlin. After working on an arrangement to introduce Coke into the Soviet Union, Mac received a call from his boss, Scarlett Hazeltine. And the story grows from there. The movie made $1.6 million from the box office release. The film was re-released in 1985 in France and became a box office hit in West Berlin. The movie got four nominations in Academy Awards, Golden Globes, Laurel Awards, and Writers Guild of America Awards.
The Lost Weekend (1945)- IMDB 7.9
The Lost Weekend is an American film starring Ray Milland and Jane Wyman directed by Wilder. The story was based on the novel of the same name by Charles R. Jackson in 1944. The movie was nominated for seven Academy Awards and won four of them. They were Best Director, Best Actor, Best Picture, and Best Adapted Screenplay. In 2011, The Lost Weekend was added to the National Film Registry as “historically, aesthetically, and culturally” significant. On Rotten Tomatoes the film got a 100% approval rating based on 33 reviews, which makes it an 8.32 rating.
The story started on Thursday, the alcoholic writer Don Birnam, who lived in New York was packing for a weekend vacation with brother Wick. When Don’s girlfriend, Helen showed up with two concert tickets he suggested Wick join Helen for the show. After they left, Don found ten dollars that Wick left, he took the money and headed for the bar to catch Wick. But he lost track of time due to drinking, and when reached Wick was leaving. Don quickly sneaked into the flat and hid the bottles. The whole drama is about alcoholism and addiction, which was not a common subject at that time.
Stalag 17 (1953)- IMDB 8.0
It was a fantastic masterpiece then. Stalag is a comedy-drama war film set during World War II prisoner camp. The movie was an adaptation from the Broadway play of the same name, which is based on prisoners in Stalag 17B in Austria. The film starred William Holden, Robert Strauss, Peter Graves, Richard Erdman, and Otto Preminger.
The movie began in 1944, on the longest night of the year. Harvey, the cook, narrated the story. The rest of the film depicted the terrible life in the prisoner camp.
The film received an Academy Award for Best Actor. Holden gave the shortest Oscar acceptance speed on stage (“thank you, thank you”). On the other hand, Wilder was nominated for the Best Director.
The above are the few examples of Billy Wilder’s masterpieces. He was a great filmmaker of his era, and will always be remembered. I hope this was an informative article for you.

Billy Wilder’s frenetic Cold War comedy One, Two, Three is a farce of verbal, rather than physical, slapstick. The master writer-director uses the international political situation of 1961 to concoct a raucous array of satirical and generational wordplay that seems almost unparalleled in cinema history. That much of the film may not play as well to younger members of today’s audiences depends on how much any one individual knows of the East-West stalemates and dogma of the Cold War era, but for Baby Boomers, this is one hilariously constructed comedy of in-jokes, sarcasm, and puns in which all nationalities are in for a thorough ribbing.
C.R. MacNamara (James Cagney) is head of the Coca-Cola operations in Germany stationed in Berlin, but when the Communists erect the Brandenburg Gate splitting Berlin in two, MacNamara knows he needs to get out as the political situation is becoming hotter by the day. He dreams of a promotion to London to become Head of European Operations and gets his chance to impress his Atlanta-based boss Wendell P. Hazeltine (Howard St. John) by taking guardianship of his seventeen-year old daughter Scarlett (Pamela Tiffin) during her visit to Berlin. During her two months in the city, however, the flighty party girl manages to get herself married secretly to Russian agitator Otto Piffl (Horst Buchholz) which MacNamara knows will spell doom to any plans he has for advancement in the company. After plotting diabolically to get the marriage annulled and have Otto arrested by the Communists for disloyalty, MacNamara is chagrined to learn that Scarlett is pregnant making it necessary for MacNamara to undo his previous scheme and come up with a new plan to reunite the newlyweds and make the caustic Otto a suitable bridegroom in the eyes of his soon-to-arrive father-in-law.
Billy Wilder and writing partner I.A.L. Diamond have created a chaotically paced verbal farce with rat-a-tat dialogue which gets more frenetic as the movie runs. In fact, in the film’s last half, Cagney’s MacNamara rarely pauses to take a breath (the film’s title refers to the lists of objectives the Coke magnate barks out to his employees as scheme after scheme comes to his mind to force things to work out so he can earn his promotion), and Horst Buchholz as the always critical Otto Piffl practically matches him word for word (though the film never quite makes us believe Otto’s eventual transformation from Communist to Capitalist). Filmed in Berlin with Aram Khachaturian’s fast tempo “Sabre Dance” serving as the fitting accompaniment for the zany, zippy wordplay, Wilder rarely stops to let the characters or the viewers take a breath, and familiar symbols of the era (pictures of Nikita Khrushchev, Fidel Castro, and Josef Stalin, banging shoes on tables, talks of missiles and Sputnik and Yuri Gagarin and threats of “burying you”) are everywhere to drive home the Cold War tone of the proceedings. Though mainly a dialogue comedy, Wilder can film a chase scene with the best of them, and the sequence where MacNamara and company frantically try to get from East to West Berlin while being chased by the German police adds some frantic action in the middle of all the verbiage.
James Cagney was 61 at the time of filming, and the exhausting pace of his scenes must have been the last straw for the veteran actor as he retired shortly afterward and didn’t make another film for twenty years. He’s certainly a whirling dervish throughout with superb split second timing with his lines and his props and rarely taking a moment of repose. Horst Buchholz likewise works overtime on spitting out those lines at lightning speed, and the two men (who didn’t like one another in real life) certainly make great dueling adversaries. Pamela Tiffin’s airhead Dixie belle is an acquired taste as the accent is too syrupy Southern for words yet she, like Otto, casts off her longing for a Siberian adventure all too quickly. Still, they make a gorgeous couple. Arlene Francis does very nicely as MacNamara’s long-suffering wife, and Lilo Pulver strikes some provocative poses as MacNamara’s voluptuous and quite efficient secretary. Howard St. John is okay as the big boss man, but Hanns Lothar steals the show as MacNamara’s executive assistant Schlemmer who will do anything for his boss including donning drag in a funny bit midway through the picture.
Video: 4/5
3D Rating: NA
The film’s Panavision aspect ratio of 2.35:1 is wonderfully delivered in a 1080p transfer using the AVC codec. While there are some flecks and the odd bit of debris here and there and a bit of flickering and line twitter, too, most of the image is sharp and clear. The grayscale offers excellent black levels and crisp whites. Contrast has been consistently applied for a good visual experience. The movie has been divided into 8 chapters.
Audio: 4/5
The DTS-HD Master Audio 2.0 mono mix is typical of its era with limited range but strong delivery of the dialogue. Andre Previn’s musical adaptation uses not only “Sabre Dance” but also novelty tunes like “Yes, We Have No Bananas” and “Itsy Bitsy, Teeny Weeny, Yellow Polka Dot Bikini” at critical moments with sound effects also appropriate in their placement. There are no instances of age-related artifacts like hiss or crackle.
Special Features: 3/5
Audio Commentary: film historian Michael Schlesinger delivers an excellent, informative commentary track with background on all the leading players and insight into production problems and the film’s reception.
Billy Wilder and Volker Schlondorff Interview (3:08, SD): the men talk in both English and German (subtitled) about problems in making the picture.
Billy Wilder on Politics (6:03, SD): the director talks about how his political leanings were averse to his star’s but were tempered throughout the making of the movie.
Theatrical Trailer (2:11, SD)
Promo Trailers: Witness for the Prosecution, The Private Life of Sherlock Holmes, The Gallant Hours.
Overall: 4/5
An excellent Cold War satire, One, Two Three requires multiple viewings to catch all of the many puns and pokes at both sides of the Cold War skirmish. Kino Lorber’s excellent Blu-ray release of this Billy Wilder classic makes return visits pleasurable indeed. Recommended!
