Hamilton Claims Satisfaction with Second Place Behind Sebastian Vettel in Spain

Lewis Hamilton claims to be satisfied with second place in Barcelona at the Spanish Grand Prix. Even though the British McLaren driver was a mere seven-tenths of a second behind winner Sebastien Vettel in his Red Bull, he really is just the first of the losers. Before the race began, most fans and pundits expected the Red Bulls, driven by Vettel and Mark Webber, to take off away from the pack the... 

Sebastien Vettel Wins Yet Again in 2011, This Time in Catalunya

The 2011 Catalunyian GP will probably go down in history as the best ever held at the circuit. Whilst I will admit that it was a good race by usual standards, I can’t help but feel continually short changed by the changes the 2011 season has brought. The two top teams are simply too fast for anyone else. Whilst this has been true of nearly every season, I think the addition of DRS, KERS, and... 

World Golf: It’s Time for Some Give and Take

If we expect players like Lee Westwood and Rory McIlory to attend events such as The Players Championship, it’s about time that the river starts running in both directions.   “I feel like since I’ve been out on TOUR that this is one of the tournaments that I would like to win the most right along with the majors,” Phil Mickelson said at last week’s TPC Sawgrass when... 

Rugby: Was Re-Signing Carter for 4 Years Really the Right Move?

It was announced last week that the NZRFU has successfully re-signed their star First Five, Daniel Carter, for another four years. This news brought relief to many New Zealanders to know that their magician would be around post-World Cup. But is this deal really what it seems? There is no questioning Carter’s greatness. Over the past eight years he has time and time again shown us that he is... 

French Open 2011 Odds: The 15 Women Most Likely to Win on the Red Clay

At first glance, the 2011 French Open women’s draw may look weaker than it has in years. There are glaring absentees (Serena and Venus Williams), highly ranked players with no major titles (Caroline Wozniacki and Vera Zvonerava), and hard-hitters that have yet to conquer the obstacles that are faced in Grand Slam tournaments (Victoria Azarenka and Petra Kvitova). Of course, there are... 

2011 French Open: 11 Reasons Why No American Will Win the French Open

The past decade at the French Open has probably been the worst American tennis has ever seen. The last winner of the event was Serena Williams in 2002 (also last to reach a semifinal in 2008). The last man to win was Andrei Agassi in 1999, which happens to be the last time an American man reached the semifinals. So this year is when the Americans break out of their slump, right? No Chance! So why will... 

2011 French Open: Nikolay Davydenko & 5 Players Seeded Too Low at Roland Garros

The draw for the 2011 French Open has just come out, with Nadal and Djokovic as the two favorites, while some players like Federer, Murray, Soderling, and Ferrer disregarded as contenders.

But it’s not just the red clay that will be at the forefront of fans’ minds. There are loads of story lines to follow.

2011 French Open : Nadal, Djokovic, Federer and Murray Scheduled for Last 4

The odds to have the top four players in the world at Roland-Garros semifinals for the first time since 2006 are great if we take a closer look at the season of Novak Djokovic, Rafael Nadal, Roger Federer and Andy Murray. At that time, David Nalbandian and Ivan Ljubicic were the third and fourth seed while Federer and Nadal were the top two. It is the tradition at Roland Garros to have the defending... 

Mark Webber Takes Pole Position in an Average 2011 Spanish Qualifying

Well, I wouldn’t say that today’s qualifying was as dull as the last event in Turkey as we got a different man on pole, and great performances from Fernando Alonso and Heikki Kovalainen. However, for the second straight Grand Prix weekend we also saw two men in first and second exit their cars before the final session was even over. As I said, there were flashes of excitement, but I’m...
