Super 14 Preview 2010: The New Zealand Challenge

Once again I expect a strong showing from the Kiwi sides, although I don’t expect the pecking order to change too much from recent times. The Crusaders will lead the way with Carter, the Hurricanes are often tough to beat, the Blues and Chiefs lack the top class players to perform consistently and the Highlanders will be found out again. Blues Never got going in 2009 and coach Pat Lam has looked... 

Super 14 Preview 2010: The Australian Challenge

Big things are expected in Australia this year after having no semi-finalists in 2009. The Waratahs and Brumbies look to be the best of the Aussies, and some are predicting both to make the semis. I suspect the Aussies will find the going tough and all their sides will struggle this year. I can’t see how they expect to field a fifth side in 2011!   Brumbies I can never understand how a Super...

Getting to Know Lukasz Kubot: The Newest Threat To the ATP’s Top 50

Making the successful transition from the doubles circuit to the singles court on the ATP World Tour can become a next to impossible feat. Often times, those players who reside on the doubles circuit do not possess the adequate skill-set or power quotient in their games to consistently challenge the world’s best singles players. As a result, childhood dreams of winning Wimbledon or capturing... 

Tiger Woods In Match Play? Stevie Williams Says “No”

Tiger Woods teeing it up next week at the Accenture? Don’t bet on it and Steve Williams says it isn’t so. “The stories stating Tiger will return to the match play have no truth to them,” Williams told the Australian paper the Sydney Morning Herald. Makes perfect sense. Has Tiger been practicing on us? Tiger has checked out of sex rehab and supposedly return to Isleworth...

Serena Williams Wins Again: Why Women’s Tennis Is Double-Faulting

Serena Williams has a lot of things going for her: looks, strength, money and a great doubles partner.  The things she lacks? The answers are simple: A good personality and some competition.  Without going into all the details surrounding her outburst some time ago, her actions were uncalled for, unprofessional and furthered stereotypes placed on American tennis players from fans from... 

Men’s Tennis Power Rankings: Roger Federer’s Statement of Intent for 2010

Just as 2009 ended with Roger Federer atop both the ATP rankings and the B/R Power Rankings, so it is after the first month of the 2010 season. With eight ATP tournaments and the opening Grand Slam in Australia now complete, there’s a certain déjà vu feel to proceedings, with Federer reasserting his dominance in the Majors with his 16th Slam title. Thereafter, things have started... 

Roger Federer Strikes Again: Glory Be the Glimmer Man

So here we are again, it’s early February and the dust has begun to settle after the first Grand Slam of the year down under. Having watched Roger Federer not only extend his record-breaking consecutive Grand Slam semi-final count to 23, but masterfully manipulated and annihilated Andy Murray in the Australian Open final, it is once again abundantly clear that Federer is still setting that bar...
