Ranking the 6 Best Short-Game Artists in Golf History

The greatest golfers in the history of the game wouldn’t have gotten there if they didn’t excel at the short game. Golfers learn quickly that it’s about developing a complete game and not just bombing the ball down the fairway. Golfers have to not only execute great shots, they also have to think of them. There are times when good golfers see a shot 30 yards from the flag stick and... 

Rugby Union: All Blacks Lucky Against Awful Springboks

It was brutal, it was ugly and at times it was downright awful. But somehow the All Blacks have escaped with a 21-11 win over the Springboks in their first test at Forsyth Barr Stadium. Contrary to pre-match predictions, the Springboks proved to be more than a challenge for the All Blacks and in the end probably should have walked away victors. They brought physicality to their game and got the better... 

Top 10 Biggest Flameouts in Golf History

As the race for the FedEx Cup comes to a temporary halt this week, there’s no question who has taken control of the PGA Tour’s annual fall classic and the world of golf. The usurper is of course the precocious Rory McIlroy, who, at the age of 23, is leaving no doubts about  whence golf’s next force will come. The fast-learning Northern Irishman had already put together quite... 

Rory McIlroy: Why the Sports World Is Not Giving Him the Respect He Deserves

There’s an old saying that anything becomes normal if it happens often enough. Twenty years ago if you told your friends that a player would come along and win 14 majors and 65 PGA Tour events within the span of just 12 years, they would have laughed at you and asked if you were feeling OK. Jump ahead to 2012, and we are wondering why that guy who won 14 majors and 65 PGA Tour events in 12 years... 

Men’s Tennis: A Song Title to Describe Each Big 4 Player of 2012

In 2012, a different player won each major for the first time since 2003 (with Andre Agassi, Juan Carlos Ferrero, Roger Federer and Andy Roddick capturing each respective slam.) With the four biggest players in the world right now winning each Grand Slam in the order of the beginning-of-year rankings, it was a rare year that wasn’t dominated by any one player (not only in terms of the slams won). If...

Top 5 Players Who Can Win the FedEx Cup

The FedEx Cup Playoffs are taking a week off prior to the Tour Championship at East Lake Country Club in Atlanta. Rory McIlroy has made it crystal clear who the most dominant golfer in the world is right now.  By winning the PGA Championship at Kiawah Island and following that up with wins at the Deutsche Bank, as well as the BMW Championship, he has set himself apart from the rest of the field.  He... 

Grand Slams: Is There Room for a Fifth Slam in Tennis?

2012 was a good year for tennis overall. There were seven (out of a possible eight) different winners in the singles category of the four Grand Slam tournaments. Talk about competition! 2012 was the one year in recent times that was not one-sided as the years before. Added to the four Grand Slams were this year’s Summer Olympics. Many called the London Olympics the “fifth Slam.” Serena... 

PGA Tour: Adam Scott and the 6 Biggest Underachievers This Year

Rory McIlroy could have made this list if his poor form from the Masters Tournament (T40) through the Open Championship (T60) had continued. Fortunately, with a victory at the PGA Championship and two consecutive FedEx Cup wins, Mr. McIlroy has removed himself from this discussion entirely. In fact, Rory has stepped through the door of “is he entering a Tiger Woods 1999-00 stretch of form,”...
