2011 Transitions Championship: Justin Rose Shoots Second 65 to Take Lead

With two victories on the PGA Tour, Justin Rose no longer has to overcome questions of how he will perform in the final round.  “Lit up the back nine yesterday and came out today and it was much the same feeling,” he said. “I think I’ve had two runs of four birdies in a row which is obviously pretty rare, back-to-back days or back-to-back nines.”   Rose had...

Tiger Woods Continues to Be Serviced: Sports Media All Too Eager To Sell Out

Though reports have surfaced that Tiger Woods has a new “girlfriend,” no one knows for sure if Tiger Woods has gone back to keeping company with women who like to get paid for their various “talents.” But judging by the treatment Tiger has gotten while hawking his latest video game, his needs are still being serviced by those being paid to perform. This week, in less... 

Sergio Garcia Surges at Transitions Championship with "The Claw"

Sergio Garcia has gone to “the claw” putting grip and rebounded to good form, one shot back of leaders Garrett Willis and Chris Couch at the Transitions Championship at Innisbrook Resort’s Copperhead Course in Palm Harbor, Florida.    Garcia had experimented with a long putter previously and then went back to the short putter before trying the claw in the fall of 2010. ... 

US Soccer: Rematch? United States and Spain Working on Friendly for June

In 2009, the United States recorded arguably the greatest win in the history of American soccer. On June 24th, after beating Egypt 3-0 days before (when they needed at least three goals) to advance out of their group, the little known Yanks came out of nowhere to shock Spain, the world’s top team, in the FIFA Confederations Cup Semifinals. The 2-0 win, with goals from Jozy Altidore and Clint... 

Tiger Woods: 7 Things He Gets in Trouble for That Average Duffers Do Regularly

Is he really that bad,... 

Rafael Nadal Reveals a Vulnerability as He Advances at Indian Wells

I was surprised to see Rafael Nadal struggle at all in his last two matches with Somdev Dev Varman and Ivo Karlovic at the BNP Paribas Open in Indian Wells, California. Nadal, who had recently taken time off due to an injury, had arrived at the tournament in top physical condition, so I expected him to play superbly, as usual. Instead, Nadal had to work unexpectedly hard...

Indian Wells’ Hercules and the Titan: Rafael Nadal Downs Karlovic To Reach Semis

The Spaniard might not have been playing against his nemesis Roger Federer, but this victory over 208 cm (6 ft 10 in) Croatian Ivo Karlovic with a thrilling 5-7, 6-1, 7-6, could be considered a Herculean task. Karlovic may not be the most talented player on tour; however, his huge serve makes him one of the hardest players to beat. “That was very tight,” an over joyous Nadal... 

Rafael Nadal and BNP Paribas Day 9: Matches to Watch

Juan Martin Del Potro(ARG) vs. Tommy Robredo(ESP) – Del Potro just keeps right on charging through the field like he didn’t miss nearly all of 2010, and what a heart-warming thing it is to see. We forget just how young he is until we remember he upset Roger Federer at the 2009 US Open a few days before his 20th birthday. At 17-4 on the season, he’s one win better than...
