While the rest of the country is hunkered down trying to avoid the icy-cold temperatures, those jerks on the PGA Tour will be finishing up their mini-swing through Hawaii at the Sony Open. The eighth tournament of the 2013-14 season, but just second of the calendar year, takes place at the beautiful (disclaimer: I’ve never actually been there, I just assume it’s beautiful) Waialae...

Given its position so early in the 2014 season, the Australian Open is often the most difficult of the four Grand Slams to handicap and predict. The dearth of recent performances to judge and the tricky nature of translating 2013 success or failure to any one player’s pending fortunes Down Under makes it in many cases a shot in the dark.

Get your smiles ready—the draws are officially out and it’s time for the Happy Slam! On the men’s side, the top half is absolutely loaded with Rafael Nadal, Andy Murray, Juan Martin del Potro, Roger Federer and Jo-Wilfried Tsonga.

Sebastian Vettel won 13 of 19 races in the 2013 Formula One season. He clinched the Drivers’ Championship with three races remaining, capping one of the most impressive performances in the history of the sport.

Andros Townsend would be my choice for the England right wing to replace the unfortunate Theo Walcott, but Aaron Lennon is another strong candidate. It is ironic that the two top candidates are both in North London at Arsenal’s biggest rivals. I know there is a clamour to find the right man to replace Walcott, but I am not sure it is the main concern for Roy Hodgson going into the World Cup...

There are two schools of thought when it comes to Michael Bradley’s imminent transfer to Toronto FC and the move’s effect on the United States men’s national team. At first glance, the 26-year-old’s decision to swap AS Roma for the Major League Soccer outfit appears a significant, backward step in his career trajectory—a transplant unlikely to do either himself or USA...
