Eldrick “Tiger” Woods used to epitomize consistency, but now you don’t know what you are going to get from the 14-time Major champion. Each tournament seems to bring a different version of Woods to the table. Woods is one-over par after the Greenbrier Classic’s opening round on Thursday. He is eight strokes behind the leader Vijay Singh, but there’s still plenty of time...

There were prime scoring conditions available on the first day of the Greenbrier Classic, but not everybody was able to take full advantage of them. That means they have plenty of work left to do on Friday to ensure they make the cut and potentially get back into contention.

With the end of every major tournament comes the end of a few careers. There were many players at Euro 2012 who would have been hoping for one last shot at glory on the international stage. Don’t worry—Iker Casillas is not one of those players, despite being pictured here. I believe that Casillas still has another three or four years left in the tank after Euro 2012. He was simply...

Pele made his declarations in an interview that appeared in Reuters with a h/t to Goal.

Tiger Woods is the only three-time winner on the PGA Tour this season, but doubt remains about his mettle in major championships. Chances to contend in the first two majors of 2012 slipped away, and the next six majors are a pivotal point in Tiger’s career. The sky-high standard of winning Tiger has set for the casual golf fan is justified by his 14 major titles, but some major courses fit Tiger’s...

Vijay Singh finds himself sitting atop the leaderboard after a superb round of 63 and...
