Nations Cup: Ireland’s 3-0 Win Shows Wales Poor, Trapattoni’s Men Favourites

Ireland climbed top of the Carling Nations Cup after a Damien Duff-inspired win saw the inaugural event’s hosts comprehensively beat Wales, 3-0. Manchester United star Darron Gibson boosted his long-range shooting reputation by blasting home a sensational 30-yard screamer to put the Irish 1-0 up. Fulham‘s Damien Duff then capped a man-of-the-match display with a composed finish inside the... 

Vitaly Petrov: A Great Opportunity In Unfortunate Circumstances

First of all, along with everyone else I want to wish Robert Kubica the best of luck with his recovery after his horrifying rally crash on Sunday. However, the business of Formula 1 continues, and there is plenty of speculation as to who is going to replace him while he is out. Lotus have narrowed it down to three drivers. In terms of experience and consistency, it would seem that Nick Heidfeld is... 

PGA Week 5: Mark Wilson, the New Phoenix of the PGA TOUR, Wins Again

Mark Wilson was never dead and gone from the PGA TOUR but he did rise again in Phoenix the day after his Packers won the Super Bowl. Even last year when the 36-year old golfer was No. 140 on the Money List going into the last event of the season he was still alive. Having won the 2009 Mayakoba Classic he was exempt for the 2011 season and he did not have anything to prove at Disney. Or maybe he did? He... 

Sampras and Agassi: Were They the Last of the American Male Tennis Legends?

With 22 Grand Slam titles between them, Pete Sampras and Andre Agassi were two of the greatest tennis players to have lived, and their intense rivalry was comparable to that of Jimmy Connors and John McEnroe. Sampras in particular held the record for the most Grand Slam titles won with 14 titles before Roger Federer surpassed that record (the Swiss now boasts 16 Grand Slam wins following his victory... 

Phil Mickelson: Is His Weekend Showing at Phoenix Open a Cause for Concern?

Some have predicted a monster year from the now 40-year-old Phil Mickelson. A strong showing at Torrey Pines was apparently all it took for the Phil faithful to jump back on that old bandwagon. Seemed a bit premature, to say the least. Mickelson is coming off what was undoubtedly his worst year on the PGA Tour in about a decade and a half—and this included, by the way, a win at the... 

Men’s Tennis: Sam Querrey and Others Set To Compete in This Week’s Tournaments

ABN AMRO 500 Five top-10 players, including Australian Open finalist Andy Murray, will compete in the 37th ABN AMRO 500 held inside in Rotterdam, The Netherlands.  Sweden’s Robin Soderling is the defending champion here, and the No. 1 seed.

Fed Cup Semis Draw Two Great Matchups

The first-round action that concluded Sunday gives us two dazzling semifinals come spring: Italy vs. Russia and the Czech Republic vs. Belgium. With Kim Clijsters leading the charge, Belgium is pretty much guaranteed two points in any given matchup. With the United States lacking either of the Williams sisters, she and Yanina Wickmayer combined for all four points in a 4-1 victory. The Czech... 

Charlie Davies Comeback Following Car Accident Is Nearly Complete

On June 21, 2009, the United States appeared that they would once again get eliminated early from a major international tournament after losing to Italy and Brazil to start the Confederations Cup. Needing a win by at least three goals and an Italian loss by three goals to advance onto the knockout stage, coach Bob Bradley decided to give three players a chance to start against Egypt. Out of those three... 

Rafael Nadal Is Sportsman of the Year, Crowned By Laureus World Sports Academy

Rafael Nadal just came short of winning his Rafa Slam, as David Ferrer on a roll and a Rafael Nadal in less-than-perfect condition wasn’t a good matchup. The great Spaniard is currently taking a short break to recover from his injury. Yesterday, his spirits must have been lifted as he was crowned as Sportsman of the Year by the Laureus World Sports Academy. The Academy consists of about forty... 

Tiger Woods: 15 Players Set To Take Over As the Top Golfer in the World

There is no argument at this point that there is not clear top golfer in the world. However, the question now changes from Tiger’s ability to everyone else’s ability to take ahold of the golf world. What comes into question is a golfer’s ability to maintain their game. That is where Tiger was able to hold his throne for so long, for two different time periods. Right now, that is what...
