There seems to be nothing remarkable about him at first glance. He doesn’t have a commanding stature, nor does he have a rippling musculature that his other contemporaries seem to possess. And when he walks, he doesn’t have the “shoulders held high” look that—again—his other contemporaries have. In the words of a cruel stepmother, the man could very well be The Other...

Tiger Woods is beginning to look dangerous again, and it is just in time for the Masters. Through six holes on the final day at the Honda Classic, he is minus-3 for the day, and minus-5 overall. A so-so 71 on Day 1 may be too much to overcome, as Rory McElroy is the leader with a minus-11, but Tiger will be heard from before it’s over. One month away from Augusta, Tiger is in fine form heading...

Sunday was the fourth and final day of the third test at the Circuit de Catalunya. This was the last chance for the teams to run their cars before the first race weekend in Melbourne, just two weeks away. Lewis Hamilton, Fernando Alonso, Sebastian Vettel, Michael Schumacher, Kamui Kobayashi, Nico Hulkenberg and Vitaly Petrov replaced their teammates. Pastor Maldonado returned to share the...

Let’s keep it real for a second, folks. The last time the sport of golf was truly exciting was when Tiger Woods was at the top of his game. Sure, it was mostly because he was the most dominant golfer many people had ever seen, but he was also young, fiery and good-looking. Woods gave golf something it seemed to lack to outsiders: Personality. Which is why the PGA is probably hoping and praying...

If one would have, at 4-3 in the first set on Saturday’s finals, known later on that Roger Federer would go on to claim 10 of the next 15 games, it would not have been believed. Yet he did just that and reclaimed his crown at Dubai by defeating world No. 4 Andy Murray, 7-5, 6-4. In the end it just seemed all too preordained, all too simple. Of course it wasn’t, but the beauty of Federer...

It seems that the new trend for Tiger Woods is his inability to finish strong on the final round of a tournament. He shot an even-par 72 during the final round at Abu Dhabi earlier this year and let Robert Rock walk away with the victory. Woods let victory slip away from his hands yet again at the Pebble Beach National Pro-Am with a final round 75. Unfortunately for Tiger, it’s Sunday again at...

The revolving door that is the top spot in the world may just be turned again. After holding onto the position for just short of a year as of now, Luke Donald seems to be less than stressed about losing his No. 1 ranking. He’s enjoying time home with his daughters this weekend, and may watch Rory McIlroy take over golf’s top spot should the young Irishman win. Thus far, McIlroy is playing...

Throughout the past five years, Rory McIlroy has done just about everything right. He’s gone from a streaky young talent to a golfer you can expect to contend every time he tees it up. He’s gone from a player who was unable to close out majors to a player who ran away with the 2011 U.S. Open title. He’s gone from a baby fat-laden teenager to a physically sculpted 22-year-old man. And...

Rory McIlroy is in control at the Honda Classic in Florida, with a two-stroke lead heading into the final round. But how he fairs on Sunday will tell us a lot about how he handles real-time pressure of golf stardom. McIlroy will have two sets of pressures on Sunday when he tees it up on the first tee: The pressure of winning on the PGA Tour with Tiger Woods in the field, and the pressure of claiming...
