It was apparent on the podium for the Malaysian Grand Prix that two of the three drivers saw their “achievements” in a particular way. Lewis Hamilton and Sebastian Vettel wanted to be on their respective steps due to an ability to compete at the highest level and not because of team orders. Vettel disobeyed his team’s request to remain behind his teammate Mark Webber by bursting...

If monkeys played golf—and I like to think that they do—this is how I imagine they would play: out of trees. Sergio Garcia is no monkey, but he did his best impression on Sunday at the Arnold Palmer Invitational after he hit a wayward drive on the 10th hole that saw the ball land directly in the middle of a tree. Luckily for the veteran golfer, his tree shot was far better than his...

If the 2013 Grand Prix at Sepang, Malaysia, were to be represented as a house made of bricks, it would have been disassembled during the 56 laps around the fast course. The first brick to be removed was Fernando Alonso, who was overly optimistic on the first lap. He broke off the left-side support on his Ferrari’s front wing, and shortly thereafter it dropped off, slid under the front of his...

Controversy is swirling after the 2013 Malaysian Grand Prix at the circuit of Sepang, as Team Red Bull took both first and second place (Sebastian Vettel edged out Mark Webber for his 27th Formula 1 victory). But it wasn’t supposed to end that way. Webber left the final pit stop of the day in the lead, and Vettel was right on his heels in second place. According to the BBC, the German racer was...

In the heat of the moment Sebastian Vettel edged past teammate Mark Webber to take victory in the Malaysian Grand Prix, and in doing so caused immense tension within the Red Bull camp. At the same time, Lewis Hamilton coasted home in third place in his Mercedes, knowing full well that his teammate Nico Rosberg could have passed him and taken the final podium-placed finish. Mark Webber was...

One was played in over 100 degree heat; the other was played in a blizzard. One emerged with a tough but much-deserved victory; the other was left to rue a two-goal lead that they had let slip and watch the game finish in a 2-2 draw. Yet despite their differences, both Mexico and the United States will look to Tuesday’s CONCACAF match with the highest importance, for their chances at qualifying...

Tiger Woods is in a very familiar position at the Arnold Palmer Invitational and he will take a two-stroke lead into Sunday’s final round. But a victory in Orlando would give him something he hasn’t had since 2009: confidence heading into Augusta. Bay Hill has treated Woods well throughout his career, and if he remains atop the leaderboard after Sunday’s round, he will capture...

One of the most hotly contested international football rivalries will once again be reignited on Tuesday as the United States makes the trip down to the Mexican fortress of Estadio Azteca in Mexico City. For a long time, this rivalry was one-sided in the favor of Mexico but over the last two decades, the United States teams have gotten better and have lit a fire under the rivalry. Before...

Orlando, Fla. — Watching Tiger Woods is giving me mental whiplash. He hits a good shot. He hits in the water or sand. He misses a putt. He makes a long-par save. Give me a break. Really. It’s not the same kind of tough golf watching as it was in the days of Greg Norman or Fred Couples, both of whom caused their fans to carry a handful of antacid tablets, but it’s in...

Tiger Woods exploded on Saturday, and he is in solid position to make some noise on the final day of the Arnold Palmer Invitational at Bay Hill. Woods posted a six-under 66 and sits two strokes ahead of Justin Rose, Rickie Fowler and John Huh heading into the final day of play in Orlando, Fla. If Woods wins, he will regain the No. 1 world ranking for the first time in nearly three years. Here is a...
