So Rory McIlroy and the European Ryder Cup team want a crack at Tiger Woods, do they? A chance to kick the world No. 1 and captain’s pick to the U.S. squad—now there’s a contradiction in terms for you—around the course while he’s down? Don’t bet on it. I’m not a hunter, but my hunter friends tell me that at no time are they more in danger than when approaching...

Forget for a second everything you learned about Tiger Woods in the last year. It won’t matter this weekend at the Ryder Cup. While you’re at it, forget everything you knew about Tiger Woods before last Thanksgiving. The 14 majors and 71 career victories—none of that will matter this week either. The only thing that matters for Tiger this weekend? His mojo. Without it, Tiger is just...

John Albert Kramer, better known as Jack Kramer, did more than play a mean game of tennis. He initiated a style of play more reminiscent of the serve and volley of John McEnroe than of Pete Sampras––though both games reflect the prowess of Kramer on court. Off court, Kramer forced the evolution of the structure of modern tennis. He drove the bus that finally arrived in 1968 when...

Thank you Singapore, I had a fantastic evening. It was so good that I think I need a cigarette—and I don’t even smoke. Thanks to a generous new points system, years of rules tweaking (re-introducing slick tires, enlarged front wings, smaller rear wings, narrowing the front tires after only a single season without grooves etc), and a little divine intervention, we actually have a race for...

During Michael Schumacher’s legendary career he has accomplished some staggering statistics; 91 grand prix victories, seven championships, 68 pole positions, 76 fastest laps and 1,415 points, all of which are records. However, one of Michael Schumacher’s best traits may be his ability to handle tough questions. Over the weekend that’s exactly what the seven-time world champion did...

The Ryder Cup is on us, and one of the many questions surrounding Tiger Woods involves his ever-changing swing. Woods has completely overhauled his swing twice since turning pro, once in the late 1990s with Butch Harmon and again a few years later with Hank Haney in an attempt to relieve the stress on his surgically repaired knee. Now, after another huge knee surgery and a very bad 2010, plus a parting...
