Roger Federer outlasted a game Tomas Berdych today to capture the Madrid Open title, but he still won’t win the French Open. Before we move on to Roland Garros, Federer and most of the world’s top players will go to Rome for the Internazionali BNL d’Italia, but Madrid and Rome are tune-ups for the French Open. At this stage of Federer’s career, the smaller tournaments matter,...

Tiger Woods has to start striking the ball with more consistency if he is going to contend in a major. He has certainly shown flashes of doing just that this year, but after having a breakthrough win at the Arnold Palmer Invitational less than two months ago, his game is going in the wrong direction. He is duffing his way around the Players Championship. Woods narrowly missed the cut, and is currently...

A person can only put so much pressure on themselves on the golf course, and Kevin Na managed to take himself to the maximum levels of pressure on Saturday at the 2012 Players Championship. Na entered the day tied for the lead and playing great golf. However, his brain and swing forgot how well he’d been playing. The 28-year-old golfer could not get comfortable when addressing the ball. He...

Rickie Fowler’s run at The Players Championship is the most compelling reason to watch the final round on Sunday. Without Tiger Woods and other big names in the hunt, the 23-year-old will be the feature attraction. It’s not just because of his vibrant golf duds; the kid is playing very well right now. Pretty Rickie tied for the best round of the tournament on Saturday with a 66 to finish...

Fans and golf experts alike keep waiting for Tiger Woods to finally click and return to the player who captured 14 major championship wins by the time he was 33. But I’ve got news for everyone: The old Tiger is never coming back. This week at the Players Championship, Woods almost missed his second straight cut—something he hadn’t done in his entire career. A four-birdie stretch saved...

Five different winners from five different teams take out the first five races of the season. What the hell is going on? It’s almost as if everyone has forgotten the Formula One script—the one where one team dominates, a couple of others keep them honest and the rest are there to make the track look busy. Not this year. We have six, possibly seven teams capable of winning a race with Williams,...

Whilst I certainly wouldn’t call the 2012 Spanish Grand Prix a classic, it has given us a first win for Williams F1 since 2004, a first win for Pastor Maldonado, and I think most importantly of all, the fifth round of the 2012 Formula One season has been won by a fifth different driver for a fifth different team! Qualifying was a bit of a disappointment in many ways. The first round (Q1)...

With the 2012 Players Championship entering its final day, there are stars who are ready to shine bright Sunday afternoon. Players such as Rickie Fowler and Phil Mickelson are bound to have stellar finishing rounds, which could put them in a position to steal the day. While it’s a long shot for some, it’s still a possibility. All of the following stars will have a wonderful Sunday at TPC...

What Kevin Na managed to accomplish on Saturday afternoon at TPC Sawgrass was nothing short of amazing. The fact that Na was one of only three players in the field without a bogey on his card during Round 3 was not in itself amazing. The fact that only one player in the field posted a lower score than Na’s 68 on Saturday was not amazing, either. The fact that Na hit 79 percent of fairways and...

Kevin Na has the lead heading into Sunday, but the competition will be too much for him to hold off. Specifically, Rickie Fowler is primed to take another step towards becoming an elite golfer. Na has been very consistent with scores of 67, 69 and 68 through three days, and that is why he’s 12-under par, but Fowler’s play has been on the upswing. That upward trend reached its highest point...
