Spa is a great track to watch. It’s long been my favorite race of the season, and this year looks to be no different. With the current three giants sure to fight it out and Mercedes and Renault looking for a way back, sparks are sure to fly. And as soon as I mention them, I’ll dismiss them.

Phil Mickelson has had a Hall of Fame career with 39 PGA Tour Wins and four major championships. He was easily capable of much more. There have always been golfers who didn’t live up to their capabilities. Tommy Bolt, Gene Littler and Lanny Wadkins all should have won multiple majors. Johnny Miller flashed talent to compete with a prime Jack Nicklaus but fizzled out. The all-time...

Let’s take a look at which teams I believe will win their match and preview their encounter. Begin...

Webb Simpson is becoming more and more of a household name on Sunday afternoons on the PGA Tour this season. Still, after turning pro in 2008 and entering his third full season on the PGA Tour, the Raleigh, North Carolina native is searching for that illusive first victory. In his first two seasons on tour, Simpson did not turn too many heads, making just 35 of 61 cuts those first two years. However,...

The LPGA is back after being 18 days off the grid. All the majors have taken place, but this week is especially important.

The Safeway Classic gives Solheim Cup points to those who finish 1 to 20, with the winner earning...

Tiger Woods is nothing if not a lightning rod. Keegan Bradley just made history at the PGA Championship, not just as a first-timer winning a major, but by carrying a big stick (long putter) to do it. The PGA’s Wyndham Championship in Greensboro is the final leg of the race to the Fed Ex Cup, and all manner of guys are scrambling to get into the playoffs. But it is the Fred Couples will-he-or-won’t-he,...

Less than a week removed from his collapse in the final round of the PGA Championship where he surrendered a four-shot lead at the Atlanta Athletic Club to Keegan Bradley, Jason Dufner has seemingly put that out of his thoughts very quickly. Of course, an opening round of four-under-par 66 at the Wyndham Championship at Sedgefield Country Club will help you do that. “It’s probably a good...

The United States men’s national team did not suddenly play like Spain in an Aug. 10 friendly against Mexico, the first game of new coach Jurgen Klinsmann’s career. Their players did not play with the panache of Brazil, or the disciplined rigor of Germany. They did show some glimpses of a brighter future, however, in a 1-1 draw against their hated rivals in Philadelphia. Having gone...
