Spain absolutely walloped Italy in the 2012 Euro Final match, winning 4-0. They are heading into the 2014 World Cup as the favorites to win once again. Spain’s road to this year’s final wasn’t always smooth. To be honest, they should have probably lost the semifinals game against Portugal, but the soccer gods granted them their blessing. They came away from that match with a chance...

Tiger Woods won the AT&T National yesterday afternoon, outlasting Bo Van Pelt for the title. This was Woods’ 74th career win, moving him into second place all time, now one more in front of Jack Nicklaus. At one point, Tiger went 41 holes without a bogey. The win, TIger’s third of the season, raises a big question: What does this do for his chances at the British Open? The Open, starting...

Whoever dreamed up the idea for Big Break: Atlantis is kind of a genius. In fact, it probably resulted from a daydream: a dozen beautiful women that just happen to play golf, stranded on an island in the Bahamas? What a concept. OK, “stranded” might not be the right term—until you watch them compete. There is definitely a feeling of isolation when one shot determines a contestant’s...

Each of men’s golf’s four majors is a special event. From Gene Sarazen’s double eagle at the 1935 Masters to Tiger Woods pointing and running after his putt in the 2000 PGA Championship playoff, there is a virtual treasure trove of highlights and lasting memories that gives each of the sport’s four crown jewels something extra over just the average week on tour. Yet even some...

The 2012 Open Championship at the Royal Lytham & St. Anne’s Golf Club will particularly benefit links-oriented players, but that is not the style of many of the world’s top golfers. The past two times the Open has been played at this venue, scores by the champion have reached double digits under par. However, with over 200 yards of added length and the adjustment to a par 70 rather...

The possibility of a Formula 1 race around the streets of London has once again been raised. A fantasy circuit created by banking giant (and sponsor of everything, it appears) Santander, created with input from McLaren drivers Lewis Hamilton and Jenson Button, features a 5.1-kilometre blast around some of the city’s most famous landmarks. Buckingham Palace, Big Ben, the Houses of Parliament and...

If there was any question as to whether or not Tiger Woods was “back”—well, it appears that question has been answered. He’s back. In winning his PGA Tour-leading third tournament of the year Sunday—a two-shot victory at the AT&T National—Tiger showed he can still win golf tournaments. In fact, nobody is doing it any better than Tiger right now. But a big question...

Jack Nicklaus is in Tiger Woods’ rearview mirror. Well, at least he is if you believe the average PGA Tour win actually matters at this point in Tiger’s career. Woods won the AT&T National on Sunday for his 74th PGA tournament triumph passing Jack for second on the all-time list only behind Sam Snead. But Snead isn’t the man that Tiger should be chasing, and he leapfrogged Nicklaus...

Tiger Woods captured the AT&T National by two strokes over Bo Van Pelt, but his celebration was restrained. Why? Because it’s not a major. Woods was poised, clutch and in control in his win in Bethesda, Maryland. But because we’re talking about Tiger, the “buts” won’t go away until he wins another major. (Click here to see the final leaderboard.) It is especially going...
