Whoever wins the world championship this year, they will be remembered not only as the driver who won with the most points, but also the victor in the tightest season battle in memory. Inevitably, racing that is so close and at such a high level becomes more than just a straight shoot-out on the race-track, but a psychological battle in which each competitor attempts to gain an edge over their opponent...

Sponsors are jumping ship, the No. 1 player in the world hasn’t won a tournament in more than a year, the FedEx Cup is floundering and the PGA Tour’s lucrative television contracts (which greatly contribute to the massive purses players compete for each week) are up for re-negotiation in less than two years. The changes suggested in this slide show are a bit more extreme than anything the...

Kournikova has become known so exclusively for looks that her tennis career has become a sort of sneer-worthy afterthought....

Never considered a nation that was big in soccer, FIFA made a very risky decision in July of 1988 when they decided to give the United States the right to host the 1994 World Cup. Before this decision was made, the United States national team had not qualified for a World Cup since 1950. And despite the success of NASL during the mid-1970s, soccer was not a mainstream sport. But, the United States...

I recently had the pleasure of attending my first rugby match while in Manchester, England. I watched the hometown Sale Sharks man-handle a visiting El Salvadorean team 97-11 (that’s not a typo). It was a fascinating experience and a must-do for any sports enthusiast. But if the sport is so popular in England and many other parts of the world, why can’t it take off in the U.S.? The truth...

Tuesday’s Euro 2012 Qualifier between Italy and Serbia clocked just six minutes on the referee’s watch before the match was suspended. Unruly fans sporting Serbian colors committed vandalism and open violence in the city of Genoa as well as during the opening minutes of the Group C matchup.

Most say that the greatest rivalry in the sport of tennis is happening right now. It started in 2004, and is still going. It’s Roger Federer versus Rafael Nadal. Critics have declared this rivalry the greatest of all time. Fittingly, Federer and Nadal are one of the people to wield a racket and bounce it across the net. But before we celebrate this amazing rivalry, there is a question....

1. The Underachiever Söderling use to be known as an underachiever, a person who did not fulfill his true potential. He was credited for reaching the US Open Junior final in 2002, and then making his transition to the main tour in 2003 with a third round appearance at Wimbledon, after qualifying rounds, and a final appearance in the Stockholm final. But consistent injuries mixed with poor results...
