Tiger Woods has been irrelevant on the golf course for the better part of two years. He is still fascinating to watch because he is who he is, but that does not change the fact that he is not a good golfer right now. Nothing Woods has done justifies Fred Couples guaranteeing him a spot on the United States Presidents Cup team. Even Geoff Ogilvy, who is on the international team, was quick to...

We’re a lucky generation. It’s as simple as that. We may have witnessed the most dominant golfer that will ever step on a course in Tiger Woods and have had the pleasure of witnessing the greatest wedge player in the history of the game, Phil Mickelson.

What if the French were to score an upset, would it be the end of the world for New Zealand? Since beating the Wallabies, New Zealand has become a land abuzz with confidence. A country brimming in the glad anticipation of seeing a second All Black captain triumphantly hoist the William Webb Ellis Trophy. All that needs to happen is a repeat of what occurred in 1987 and for us to beat the French. It’s...

After four years of preparation, 40 pool games, two weeks of sudden death knockout games, we are finally down to just two teams. The All Blacks meet France on Sunday in a game that will decide who gets to wear the title of world champions for the next four years. Both teams have followed very different roads to the Final, with the All Blacks playing some great rugby along the way, while the French...

It’s been a long wait for Tiger Woods, between health and personal issues we’ve seen his career fall apart quickly. Having him back guarantees more attention for the tour, higher ratings, which of course impacts directly in recovering sponsors or even signing new ones.

Rory McIlroy failed to hold a three-stroke lead with only 12 holes to play at the PGA Grand Slam of Golf. Keegan Bradley bounced back from early struggles to shoot an even-par 71, winning the 36-hole event at four under (par).

The Boston Red Sox have been hitting headlines with booze news, since a WHDH-Boston television report was released saying that Josh Beckett, John Lester and John Lackey were drinking beer in the dugout during the season. Well in other alcohol and sports related news, one of golf’s most well known figures will be releasing his own drink. No, we’re not talking about John Daly here. Arnold...

It’s a lonely place for Roger Federer in the ATP’s top 10 rankings: not just because he’s the only Swiss there, but he’s also the only player that hits a one-handed backhand. The rest of the ranking elite all get that extra bit of oomph on the backhand side by taking the two-handed approach. With the way the game is going now, will there ever be another men’s Grand Slam...
