Serena Williams, Ron Artest, Kyrie Irving and Today’s Top Sports News

Wimbledon continues today with the roll of Serena Williams.  The No. 7 seed defeated No. 26 Russian Maria Kirilenko in straight sets today, 6-3, 6-2.  She will face France’s Marion Bartoli in the Round of 16, as she continues her effort to win a third consecutive Women’s Singles Championship at All England Club. It has been a very inspirational run for the younger Williams sister... 

Andy Roddick: Why Roddick Will Never Win Another Grand Slam

After his comprehensive third-round defeat to Feliciano Lopez at Wimbledon, it seems Andy Roddick‘s hopes of winning that elusive second Grand Slam are over. Roddick, ranked No. 10, was crushed in straights sets by Lopez, the experienced Spaniard who is ranked 34 places below him on the ATP Tour. And it was painfully clear on Centre Court that the Roddick of old, the 2003 U.S Open champion, will... 

Gold Cup 2011: Patience the New Reality for the United States and Its Fans

For another game, the new formation, tactics and players (to a point), worked for Bob Bradley. The United States beat Panama 1-0 after a late counter-attack goal from Clint Dempsey. The assist came from struggling Landon Donovan, who came on as a substitute, and the play was started by Freddy Adu; the entire play was wrapped up in a heart warming package. But there may be some out there that were a... 

Former Tennis Great Jim Courier Talks Tennis in Interview at Charity Event

On Wednesday afternoon, former tennis great and current U.S. Davis Cup Captain, Jim Courier took time out of his day to go down to Rockefeller Center in New York City to give some tennis lessons and play games with children from the City Parks Foundation. The event was set up by HSBC bank in which they installed the only grass-surfaced court in all of New York City. Before beginning the lessons, Courier... 

What the United States Has to Do to Win the Gold Cup Final

So far in this 2011 Gold Cup, the United States national team has given us a mixed message about what we should exactly expect out of them. After an unconvincing group stage that included a 2-1 loss to Panama (the first ever loss for the Americans in the group stage of the Gold Cup), the United States retaliated with a convincing 2-0 win over a strong Jamaican side in the quarterfinal. In the semifinal,... 

Formula 1: FIA Rule Changes to Put the Brakes on Red Bull and Sebastian Vettel

Helmut Marko is not a man who is afraid of making a big statement or letting people know what he’s thinking. At the moment, he’s thinking that the FIA are changing the rules to try to slow down Red Bull. Marko, a consultant (whatever that means) with Red Bull Racing, has said as reported in the F1 Times of the hot-blown diffuser changes that, “This time it [the ban] seems to have... 

Sebastian Vettel Takes an Easy Pole in the 2011 European GP

Of course it was going to be hard for anything to be able to beat the phenomenal show that was the Canadian Grand Prix. So I guess it’s no real surprise that the qualifying for the 2011 European Grand Prix felt so flat. I have to say 2011 qualifying has been some of the worst I’ve ever seen, and frankly even Canada’s qualifying wasn’t exactly heart stopping. Each session followed... 

Maria Sharapova: Why 2011 Wimbledon Will Define Her Career

Former World No. 1 Maria Sharapova is only 24 years of age. It seems like the Russian beauty has been around forever. That is because 6’2″ Sharapova has been winning majors since she was 17 years old, turning professional a decade ago. The Russian plays right-handed, employing a two-handed back-hand. Much of her power comes from her non-traditional swing volley when approaching the net.... 

Quote Misquote: Maria Sharapova, Ryan Harrison, John McEnroe, Etc.

What she said: “I don’t have any regrets about being 24.” Maria Sharapova is enjoying her status as one of the elder stateswomen on the WTA tour. The Russian has won three majors in her eight years and is one of the favourites for this year’s Wimbledon. What she really meant: “I’m 24 and I’m old. So what?” What she definitely didn’t: “I...
