This year’s Olympics marks the first time that mixed doubles will be an official event since 1924, and the selection of teams is very much an afterthought that follows what is thought to be the more important tennis.

Troy Kelly and Webb Simpson have surged to the top of the 2012 Greenbrier Classic leaderboard, but with 18 holes left to play, their lead is far from safe. The course has been friendly to just about everyone thus far, as multiple players have posted some ridiculous scores. Kelly earned his spot at the top by dropping an eight-under 62 on Saturday, while several other golfers shot six-under on the third...
