Novak Djokovic has taken over the No. 1 spot in the ATP rankings. However, it’s crazy to say that he’s better than Nadal. Fact of the matter is, Djokovic hasn’t dominated as long as Nadal has. All he’s had is a fantastic 2011 season. He may be the best player this year, but one can’t put him above Nadal because of one unreal season. Here are five reasons why Djokovic is...

The 2011 golf season is flying past us. We are only a week away from the year’s third major. This year, the British Open will take place at Royal St. George’s. Last time the venue held the Open, Ben Curtis came out of nowhere to win. Will a relatively no-name win this year’s tournament? Or will Rory McIlroy prove to all he is here for a long time? We will all find out...

We’ve finished the group stages of the 2011 FIFA Women’s World Cup, and despite a couple surprises, they ended like many thought they would. Well, most of them did. Germany started slow but finished strong and ended up winning Group A like everyone knew they would. Their defense was not at all solid though. France were the surprise second-placed team out of Group A as Canada were...

Sweden scored a penalty and directly from a free kick in the first half, and those were enough to see them win their group for the first time. Abby Wambach finally scored from a corner kick midway through the second half, but the US didn’t play very well as a team throughout. They were unfortunate not to...

The Copa America is arguably the greatest international football event, short of the World Cup. This year, Argentina will host the CONMEBOL tournament, as the hosts hope to reestablish themselves as the best South American team. The winner of the tournament earns a bid to the 2013 Confederations Cup, which would be a fantastic tune-up to the 2014 World Cup in Brazil. The matches will be intense, and...

In the great tradition established by Leon Lett’s Super Bowl showboat, Gus Frerotte’s headbutt, Mark Madsen’s dance and, the coup de grace, Bill Gramatica’s post field goal torn ACL, French golfer Thomas Levet’s leap joined the pantheon of sports celebrations gone terribly wrong. Last weekend near at Le Golf National, Levet shot a closing round one-under-70 to...

There was a certain déjà vu about the storyline that could unfold on the emerald sward of Wimbledon. Just as they had done only a fortnight before at the French Open, Rafael Nadal and Novak Djokovic were again competing for both a Grand Slam title and the No. 1 ranking. In the run-up to what most anticipated would be a dream final, the top spot was ready to shift from one of these players...

“Unfortunately, I’ve been advised that I should not play in the British Open,” Woods said in an announcement yesterday. “As I stated at the AT&T National, I am only going to come back when I’m 100 percent ready. I do not want to risk further injury. That’s different for me, but I’m being smarter this time. I’m very disappointed and want to express...
