In an exciting finish to the 2012 Masters, Phil Mickelson could cement his status as a golfing legend by capturing his fourth green jacket. He’s in a great position to pull that off after firing a 66 on Saturday to move into second place—just one stroke off Peter Hanson’s lead. The results mean that Mickelson and Hanson will be the final group on the course on Sunday. The two...

The leaderboard at the 2012 Masters Tournament has changed drastically since Day 1. On Thursday, it was Lee Westwood with the lead at five under par. On Friday, it was Fred Couples and Jason Dufner sharing the honor at minus-five. And while those three players remain within striking distance on a crowded leaderboard after three rounds of action, one name stands out from the rest—three-time Masters...

Tiger Woods is infamous for his incredibly childish reactions on the golf course after bad shots—a pattern that shows me there is a bigger problem lurking beneath the surface. Woods’ latest tantrum—the one where he punts his golf club—has become a viral video on YouTube. It will also likely get him fined, according to the Washington Post. Woods has been fined in the past by...

We are not fully used to Rory McIlroy disappointing the fans just yet, but Saturday at Augusta National was pretty close to McIlroy not meeting expectations when all eyes were on him. Entering Saturday, he was just one stroke behind the leaders and by the end of the day he was clearly out of the running for the championship by shooting a five-over par 77.

It is a shame to see Serie A on her deathbed. The once-proud league is quickly becoming an afterthought as scandals, crowd troubles and a poor product continue to plague the Italian game. This is not to say Serie A should be pitied. Most of the league’s problems are self-inflicted wounds caused by arrogance and a failure to swiftly handle issues. Inter Milan’s Champions League victory...

This is not how things were supposed to work out on moving day at the 2012 Masters. The two golfers people expected to be applying pressure to the rest of the field fell even further off the pace. Tiger Woods and Rory McIlroy both struggled at Augusta on Saturday, and they are well off the nine-under pace set by Peter Hanson. Hanson will take a lead into Sunday at Augusta after shooting...

What a day for the No. 2 golfer in the world, Rory McIlroy. He came into Saturday at the Augusta National thinking “championship” but left thinking what could have been. Fort the second time this week, McIlroy started off his round with a double bogey on the first hole. Although he was able to bounce back on Thursday, there was no bouncing back on Saturday, as bogeys started...

Rory McIlroy wasn’t ready to exorcise his Augusta demons on Day 3 of the 2012 Masters. Through 12 holes, McIlroy was plus-six on the day, dragging him down to plus-two in the tournament—resulting in a nine-shot deficit behind the leaders. He isn’t the only high-profile player lurking around the bottom half of the leaderboard, either. Here are the three biggest disappointments...

Masters Sunday may hold one of the greatest pressures in all of sports. Peter Hanson will experience it firsthand. Hanson finds himself in a great position heading into the final day at the 2012 Masters. He sits on top of the leaderboard at nine under. Hanson shot a Round 3-best 65 on Saturday, looking like a real threat for the green jacket. That will change on Sunday, however, because the pressure...
