That's why. A "world renowned event" is famous in the real world, not just in the world of athletics. I have never run a marathon and I never intend to (cardio kills gains, lol), yet I have hear of the New York marathon many times over the years. That is a world renowned event.

Wimbledon and the World Cup are #1 in their sports - and, unsurprisingly, I knew of them. But there are simply too many things in the world for the average person to know about the #6 event in marathons.
