It’s a beautiful day in Memphis, Tennessee, at 89 degrees and the scores are not as low as the previous two days. Faster greens as the sun bakes them and harder pin placements on the weekend have kept the scoring from going totally nuts on Saturday. Lee Westwood, playing on my Yahoo Fantasy Golf Team this week, is hanging in there at eight-under after 12 holes. Westwood is tied with Robert Garigua...

I have been waiting for this Grand Prix to come along since it was first announced that Canada was back on the calendar for 2010, and boy did it deliver! That was unquestionably the best qualifying session of 2010 so far, and that isn’t just because someone other than a Red Bull is on pole! I would also like to say that it was thoroughly brilliant to see all of the grandstands full and even...

The United States has the chance to do something important and that does not start with winning the World Cup. I’m sorry soccer fans, but the general population of sports fans don’t get excited about the sport. The United States has a chance to gain popularity into a sport that many could care less about. One of the reasons could be the lack of scoring. Comparing professional...

In Part I of the US Midfield, I focused on the three locks to start every game for the US (barring injury)—Michael Bradley, Clint Dempsey, and Landon Donovan. While Bradley should start in the center of midfield with no exceptions, Donovan and Dempsey both provide versatility that gives Coach Bradley a variety of options for his lineup sheet. Clint can play up top, as can Landon; both...

For those watching the South Africa-Mexico game to start the 2010 World Cup, there was a moment, halftime actually, where the game was in the hands of the coach. 0-0, Mexico with the bulk of the play, many believing that South Africa was barely hanging on. However, there was a five to ten minute span close to half where the host nation had controlled the play, especially on the wing. There was hope....

Despite going into the game as underdogs, South Korea defeated Greece today by a score of 2-0 in Port Elizabeth, South Africa. The scoring opened in the seventh minute, when Lee Jung-Soo knocked in a close range shot off of a corner kick-like set piece. Of course, lapses by Greece allowed both the set piece and the goal. However, you still can’t take anything away from the Korean side and the...

John McEnroe is one of the greatest tennis players of all-time. He was known for his great play, competitive nature and his outrageous behavior on the court of play. His on court behavior could be explosive and it meant referee beware! He was born in Germany and grew up in upstate New York. His father was a military man and worked in advertising before becoming an...

To think of the US Open as just another golf tournament is like calling Jordan just another basketball player and De Niro just another actor. It’s blasphemy. It’s erroneous on all counts. It’s a distorted perception of reality. The only thing that is certain about the US Open: nothing is certain. Never has that statement been as legit and verifiable as with the 2010 US Open, which...

I tried to find the longest known time for a tiger chasing his own tail in the Guinness Book of World Records. No such luck. The record may very well belong to Tiger Woods. He’s at about six months now and counting. After taking time off at the beginning of the season to put his life back together, Tiger made his comeback attempt at a comfortable, familiar spot for him: Augusta National,...
