John McEnroe Tops List of 10 Best Serve and Volleyers of Modern Era

Serve and volley players are probably the most fearless players in Tennis. They come to the nets constantly without having any second thoughts. Physically, serve and volley players are tough and extremely quick. They do not give you much time to think and they close out the points quickly. Mentally, these players are those who are not able to concentrate for a long time. A survey says that most Tennis... 

PGA Tour Rookie Matt Every Accused of Marijuana Possession

Some people say golf is not a sport for the “everyday” man—it’s only for the rich or well off. Some say golf is boring and has no news-worthy topics as other sports do. Not the sex, drugs, and rock ‘n roll that seems to drive other sports to popularity for some unknown reason. Well, fortunately, golf and the PGA Tour have hit the “big time” sports now. Past... 

Sebastian Vettel, Mark Webber Lead Silverstone F1 Practice

The Formula One World Championship turns to Silverstone this weekend in England for the British Grand Prix. Red Bull teammates Sebastian Vettel and Mark Webber currently have been the two fastest drivers in practice. Vettel topped the first session with Webber leading the second practice round on Friday. The British Grand Prix has been a staple on the Formula One calender for many years and is a marquee... 

Bjorn Borg Clone Rafael Nadal Doomed to Defeat in the Big Apple?

Put them in a line up, shoulder to shoulder.  At first glance, these two men appear to have nothing in common.  Swede Bjorn Borg—the legendary clay court artist of the 70s and 80s—possessed rock star looks that made him a fan favorite enhanced by long blond hair, deep blue eyes, and an icy-cool demeanor.   In contrast, Spain’s Rafael Nadal, the current clay court king,... 

I Shot 60 To Open The Tournament I Won Last Year and No One Noticed

I look cooler than Paul Goydos. Hey, it’s Steve Stricker here. Just wanted to let you know I shot 60 on Thursday, but with all the hoopla over Paul’s 59, no one seemed to notice, as I started late. This sure is an easy course for my game. Guess what, Paul?  We have to play three more days on a course I love, and I’m only one down. Good luck Paul. Your going to need it.   Read... 

The Gift and Curse of Sports Records: What Paul Goydos Got Himself Into

Is Paul Goydos, who became the fourth golfer to shoot a round of 59 (the lowest score in PGA Tour history), about to endure a similar, harsh twist of fate of this year’s other sports stars like Ray Allen, Dallas Braden, and Armando Galarraga? He has been given a gift, but will he fall to the curse of perfection? When Ray Allen hit eight three-pointers in Game Two of... 

John Deere Classic: Paul Goydos Gives Them a Number to Think About, 59

59: That’s a number few golfers ever see, unless you’re talking about the front nine, maybe. Al Geiberger had the record for quite a while with his 59, before Chip Beck turned one in Vegas, and there might have been one more somewhere. Al Geiberger signed his autograph Mr. 59 for many years after his low round. Now, Paul Goydos has carded a 59 for the lead in the first round of the John... 

Paul Goydos Shoots 59 in First Round of John Deere Classic

Birdie 10, Birdie 11, Birdie 12, Birdie 13, Birdie 14, Par 15 (what happened there?), Birdie 16, and Birdie 17. How’s that for a scorecard to start off the back nine of a PGA Tour event? And no, this is not a dream or a script for a Hollywood golf film. No, this is exactly what Paul Goydos did in the first round of the John Deere Classic on Thursday. His front nine was not as birdie-filled... 

Post-Wimbledon Power Rankings: Another Queen Besides Serena Williams?

Wimbledon is over, the year 2010 tucked away in the record books. Centre Court now sports a roof and artificial lights, an abrupt departure from tradition in favor of increased revenue and pressure from major television outlets. Most of the traditions, however, stay intact, like bowing to the Queen, strawberries and cream, and no tiebreak in the final set. While the elongated fifth set has been... 

Jenson Button vs. Lewis Hamilton: Are They Really at War?

Anyone not familiar with the sport of Formula One would hear the furor surrounding Lewis Hamilton and Jenson Button at the moment and wonder when they became a married couple. The in-fighting, the competitiveness surrounding results, and the rumoured tension between the two; if that doesn’t sound like a couple well into their marriage I don’t know what else does. To me the scrutiny surrounding...
