Still Waiting For That Breakthrough In The Men’s Tennis Game?

The heavy forehand sailed just long as it hit the court, ending a 13-stroke rally in dramatic fashion following a 5-set battle between two rivals.  Once again Rafael Nadal had broken Roger Federer‘s heart, as was indicative of the tears that streamed from Federer’s face during the post-match ceremony.  The 2009 Australian Open ended much like the previous year’s... 

Tiger Woods Continues Taking Baby Steps Toward the Only Solution

Tiger Woods appeared on national television last Sunday looking fit, relaxed, and altogether healthier than he did several weeks ago at the PGA Tour headquarters in Ponte Vedra Beach, Fla. Perhaps Woods was finally ready to come clean about everything, dispel all the ridiculous rumors, and move on with his life. An unscripted, no-holds-barred five-minute rapid-fire question-and-answer session. ... 

Tiger Woods’ Detractors Emerge

Stalwart : one who exemplifies behavior considered stout, strong, brave, and valiant. Pre-eminence : state or character of illustrious, distinction, domination, valor, and significance.   It often transpires in every sport at one time or another, a talent so unique, so incapable of the inherent wisdom of his or her years succumbs to the passions, temptations, and desires of living the anointed... 

Sony Ericsson Open: ATP Top Seeds Promise To Bring On Miami Heat

How many of you picked Ivan Ljubicic to win at Indian Wells? Jelena Jankovic? Northern Iowa to upset Kansas in the NCAA basketball tournament?  Just as I thought. That is why I am a little reluctant to put my neck on the line when discussing the ATP top seeds’ chances at the Sony Ericsson Tennis Open this week in Miami. That does not mean that the wins this past weekend were not significant... 

Formula 1 without Kimi Raikkonen

Let’s put things in perspective, shall we? How is Formula 1 doing without Kimi? I know, I know, it’s just the start of the season.  I know, I know, you can’t judge how the season is going to turn out by using the snore-fest that was the Bahrain Grand Prix as a barometer. And of course, you don’t need to tell me twice that it seems that this rule of not re-fuelling... 

Super 14 Week 6: Who Wants the Last Semi-Final Spot?

The sixth week of the Super 14 saw the Top Three remain in charge and on track for the semi-finals. The rest of the log did not change a lot, although the Sharks finally managed their first win, and the Blues showed how good they can be, on their day! The Lions continue to be a walking bonus point (unfortunately for the opposition), whilst the Cheetahs start what I believe will be their downward spiral... 

Tiger Woods “Comeback” Over-Hyped Like Everything Else in His Life

A couple of years ago, I wrote an article bemoaning the complete lack of rough edges on modern sportsmen like Roger Federer or Tiger Woods. While Federer hasn’t been caught out to date, it appears that I may have been just a little bit wrong about the great Mr. Woods. It seems that everyone’s darling Tiger has more rough edges than a bag full of wood rasps. Tiger apparently got very “lonely”... 

What England’s Rugby Side Can Learn From France’s Artistic Experiment

No doubt French coach Marc Lievremont would have very much liked to raise a sarcastic eyebrow towards those who doubted his grand plan, as he toasts a Les Bleus Grand Slam.   Most thought that the crazed strokes of Lievremont’s scheme resembled more an abstract piece by noted American Jackson Pollock—all too expressive, and lacking the required graceful work that a French artist would... 

Italy Slowly Growing As They Eye Another Big Foe

While the Azzurri may have ended the Six Nations in fifth place, the third time in a row they have been positioned in the cellar, the Italians can reflect on a solid campaign.   Four losses may not constitute a success in typical terms, but there is no doubting that gradually Italian rugby is getting stronger, breaking a two-year losing streak in the Six Nations by defeating Scotland 16-12 this... 

What if Tiger Doesn’t Remember the Crash?

In the two, five-minute Tiger Woods interviews that aired on Sunday evening as Jim Furyk was nearly taking out K.J. Choi with an amazing shank on the 18th hole at Innisbrook’s Copperhead Course, Woods was asked about the early Nov. morning when he bogeyed the driveway. Well, ok, he doubled it.      One out of the drive way. One into the shrub. One into the row of shrubs across...
