Roger Federer vs. Bernard Tomic: Why the Youngster’s Words Will Be His Downfall

There’s no beating around the bush when it comes to Bernard Tomic’s recent attitude towards his fellow tennis contemporaries at the 2013 Australian Open; bold, brash, and ostensibly confident. Over the course of the past couple of days, his demeanor towards his highly anticipated third round encounter against World No. 2 Roger Federer on Saturday night in Melbourne has become comparable... 

Australian Open 2013 Results: Day 5 Scores and Results Summary

On a day where there was only one match that didn’t feature a seeded player, the amount of intrigue at the 2013 Australian Open was low. Maria Sharapova crushed Venus Williams in Day 5’s most talked-about match, and her fellow top seeds followed suit.

Rafael Nadal: Rafa Is Making Smart Decision Returning to Clay Court First

It’s only appropriate that Rafael Nadal is making his return to the clay at the Chilean Open. He was originally believed to be returning at the Brazil Open on Feb. 11.

Australian Open 2013: Roger Federer Will Pass Early Test from Bernard Tomic

Roger Federer will get his first test at the 2013 Australian Open from third-round opponent Bernard Tomic, but the 20-year-old Australian isn’t quite ready to handle Fed. In three previous meetings, Federer has bested the up-and-comer with little-to-no difficulty.  Tomic has only managed to capture one set in those matches dating back to March 2011, when they first met during Davis Cup competition.... 

5 Ways Rory McIlroy’s Shift to Nike Will Impact His Game

Much has been made about Rory McIlroy, the No. 1 player in the world, and his switch in equipment from Titleist to Nike.

Will David Duval Fight His Way Back onto the PGA Tour?

Once upon a time, David Duval was the best golfer in the world. Between 1997 and 1999, Duval won 11 times on the PGA Tour. During that 1999 season, Duval shot a 59 at the Bob Hope Chrysler Classic in the final round to win it and won the Players Championship. Probably the closest player to actually match Tiger Woods win-for-win, Duval won his first major at the 2001 Open Championship. Just shy of his...
