Hispania Racing: Don’t Be Too Harsh; Remember the Life Team

There has been a lot of criticism this year of the three new teams in Formula 1. Hispania Racing in particular have been the victims of some fairly severe abuse from the media along with the other two new teams, Lotus and Virgin Racing. Some people have said they don’t deserve to be in Formula 1—that they add nothing to the sport and their cars are so far off the pace they are... 

Gallic Gael Monfils and Glacier-Cool Robin Soderling Produce Paris Drama

How can a simple headline sum up the drama played out in Paris on semifinals day in the last Masters of the year? The two matches each lasted two-and-three-quarter hours: five-and-a-half hours of continuous play. Between them, they lasted just one game short of the maximum: five tie-breakers and a sixth set of 7-5. And both matches featured a Frenchman in front of the most vociferous tennis fans in... 

FIFA World Cup: Power Ranking the Bids for 2022

The host for the 2022 FIFA World Cup will be announced on December 2. The bidding process for this World Cup, along with the 2018 World Cup, has been one of the most hectic, if not the most, of all the World Cups so far. There has been plenty of competition among different countries around the world. Some countries have withdrawn bids, while others have stayed the whole way.  This bid has also... 

Roger Federer: A Tale Of Two Rogers

In the immediate aftermath of a vacillating encounter with home-crowd favorite Gael Monfils, a resurgent Roger Federer could: a) be cooling off in the locker room with a “these-things-happen” attitude having already put the match behind him b) be kicking himself repeatedly for letting go of five match points as well as a break in the final set. c) be greedily wondering why the net... 

Rugby: Sonny Bill Williams Stars as All Blacks Destroy Scotland

The most talked about man in New Zealand rugby this year, Sonny Bill Williams, was outstanding this morning as the All Blacks scored seven tries to none in a 49-3 victory over Scotland, at Murrayfield.  Both teams looked to move the ball, but it was the All Blacks who were able to make the most of their opportunities, and proved to be simply too good for a Scottish team who looked out of it’s... 

Vettel Takes Pole Position in a Phenomenal Abu Dhabi 2010 Qualifying

Now, I’ve made no secret of the fact that I don’t like the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix. I think it says a lot about Bernie Ecclestone’s priorities that the final race of the season has been given to a country where the average citizen owns just under $18 million (£11 million). However, I will most certainly concede that it is fantastic to see the final race decide the Championship;... 

Tiger Woods’ Family Jewels on the Auction Block: Zing Goes The Bling!

It has been exactly one year less two weeks since Tiger Woods‘ life and career careened off the road, literally and figuratively, and the man once admired for his single-minded pursuit of unparalleled golfing greatness has spent the past 351 days driving into fire hydrants and trees. Figuratively, if not literally. We now know that Woods will not win another golf tournament this weekend, because... 

WTA 2011: The New Hopes, The Williams Strike Back and The Return Of The Belgians

Next year’s WTA season will no doubt be one of the most interesting in a long time. Venus and Serena will be back, supposedly eager to once again prove that their dominance over women’s tennis will extend for as long as they will it to be, regardless of what ranking they receive. Justine Henin will try to prove that she is truly back and still the Queen of clay, while Caroline Wozniacki... 

Time for a Sea Change for Federer and Nadal Fans; They Are the Greatest Ever

Time for a sea change for Federer and Nadal fans. Some will call me crazy. Some will call me biased. But I don’t care; this is my opinion. Federer is the God of tennis. The player who possesses the supreme athleticism, the perfect combination of speed, power, footwork, skill and balance. The player who seems to glide around the court with effervescent grace, whose forehand could do anything.... 

Creating a Fairer ATP Season for Nadal, Federer and Everyone Else

Over the recent years, there have been many player complaints about the lengthy ATP season, spearheaded by Rafael Nadal and, to a lesser extent, Roger Federer. Taking this in mind, I have created an ATP season that I believe is relatively reasonable for those top players and for those lower ranked ones, and those dying breed of surface specialists. I would start the year with Chennai, Doha and the...
