Eight-time tournament champion Tiger Woods is absent from this year’s Arnold Palmer Invitational at Bay Hill in Orlando, Fla., but the rest of the world’s top golfers are going all out for a PGA Tour title.

After a disappointing start to the 2014 season, Novak Djokovic finally seems to be back on track. Last week, the 26-year-old ended his drought by capturing his first tournament win of the year at the ATP BNP Paribas Open. Although it wasn’t easy—all but one of his six matches went to three sets—a win is a win. That’s especially the case when you consider that other top players,...

When he crossed the line to secure 10th place in the Australian Grand Prix on Sunday (which later became ninth after Daniel Ricciardo’s disqualification), 19-year-old Daniil Kvyat became the youngest driver to score a point in the history of Formula One. It was quite an achievement—but with six of the 10 youngest drivers to score an F1 point still on the grid today, it is now perhaps more...

Did you really expect Roger Federer to stay down for long? The world’s former No. 1 player has quickly turned the page on a disastrous 2013 campaign. In four tournaments this year, Federer has put together an impressive 19-3 singles record, captured one title and reached the final in two other events and got to the semifinals in the other.

It was revealed on Thursday that Red Bull has lodged an appeal to the FIA over Daniel Ricciardo’s disqualification from the Australian Grand Prix. Hours after crossing the finishing line to take second place in his home grand prix, Ricciardo learned that he had been excluded from the results for exceeding the maximum 100kg per hour fuel flow rate.

This week’s bold predictions have decided to go out on a limb, ignore logic, throw caution to the breeze and fly in the face of the bookmakers by backing the underdogs. Call it a hunch, blind optimism or nonsense, but there will be shocks this week—shocks that reverberate from the tip of the Cape of Africa to the lower reaches of New Zealand’s South Island. You heard it here first. Begin...

Rafael Nadal is off to another hot start in 2014, and he looks primed to make another deep run in the ATP Sony Open. The current No. 1 overall player in the world last played in the BNP Paribas open, making it to the third round, but he withdrew early from the tournament before playing Alexandr Dolgopolov. He received a first-round bye in the Sony Open, and with how well he’s playing right now,...

We have applauded the best; now it’s time to look at the other end of the scale. The Six Nations was electrified by some world-class performances, but there were some leading lights who shone less brightly.
