Rafael Nadal, Roger Federer or Novak Djokovic: Predicting Who Will Win U.S. Open

How unsure must Rafael Nadal feel after yet another loss to Novak Djokovic, this time on the grandest stage of all, at the 2011 Wimbledon Championships? This is by far one of Nadal’s most consistent seasons, already reaching eight finals. However, five of those finals have been lost—some in a convincing fashion—to the flying Serb. The overwhelming favorite to lift the title at... 

Golf’s 13 Most Ridiculous Rules and How We’d Change Them

Golf is a sport with a rather comprehensive rulebook. Depending on who you ask, it’s either a charm or an annoyance that the rules used by the best pros in the biggest tournaments are the same used by Sunday hackers. For me, it’s both a charm and annoyance. It’s nice to be able to compare scores with the professionals but, realistically, the golf played on the millions of... 

Novak Djokovic’s Wimbledon Victory Rewrites Tennis Season and French Open

Can one match change how we are to interpret the entire season?  I’ll answer with a resounding yes.  At this year’s Wimbledon final, everything was at stake. Novak Djokovic was to take over the official No. 1 ranking no matter the outcome, but had he lost the final, things would have looked very different. He wouldn’t quite have been put in the shoes of the women’s...

Women’s Tennis: Too Much Focus on Sex Appeal and Stars Are Why No One Watches

Can you imagine Marion Bartoli or Sabine Lisicki playing against Petra Kvitova in the Wimbledon finals? I can. Bartoli and Lisicki both had a chance to make the finals this year—not by chance, but by quality of play. Maria Sharapova made the finals, which NBC was happy about. In women’s tennis these days, networks care about one thing only: sex appeal. When I read the headlines before the...
