Is the Sound of the New 2014 Formula 1 Engines a Problem on TV?

There was a roar emanating from Melbourne last weekend, but it was not coming from the Formula One cars tearing around Albert Park. Rather, it was the sound of the media, fans, race organisers and even F1 CEO Bernie Ecclestone complaining about the lack of noise made by the new hybrid F1 power units. (We are not supposed to call them “engines” anymore.) I do not think this criticism is... 

What Will We Learn About Tiger Woods’ 2014 Masters Chances at Bay Hill?

Beleaguered by a bad back and mired in a slump, Tiger Woods enters the Arnold Palmer Invitational at Bay Hill with a serious agenda to illustrate his ability, both physically and mentally, to win a major this year.

Ranking Tiger Woods’ 8 Victories at Bay Hill Club and Lodge

You know we’re talking about something special when we start ranking a player’s collection of wins at a certain tournament. And like him or not, Tiger Woods has done some very special things in golf.

Was Valtteri Bottas the Driver of the Day at Australian Grand Prix?

For the first time since the summer of 2013, there was no shortage of choices for Driver of the Day in the immediate aftermath of a Formula One race.

Biggest Storylines Heading into the Arnold Palmer Invitational

Anything that has Arnold Palmer’s name associated with it is something special just because of whom Palmer is in the game of golf. And that’s why his tournament, the Arnold Palmer Invitational, at Bay Hill Club & Lodge in Orlando, Fla., has become such a special event as Palmer advances in age. Just like players used to do when they played in the tournament named after Byron Nelson... 

Six Nations 2014: 10 Players Who Enhanced Their Reputations

There were plenty of brilliant individual displays in this year’s Six Nations, with the 16-strong short list for official player of the tournament proving how many outstanding performances there were. But these 10 are also about those who stepped it up a notch. Those who have not made this final 10, while performing at a high level, merely confirmed how good we know they are rather than move... 

2014 Miami Sony Open Will Set the Tone for Rest of the WTA Season

The 2014 Miami Sony Open should sort out the mix-bag of results produced on the WTA Tour so far this season. The Australian Open, the first Grand Slam, comes and goes so quickly it’s rarely a true barometer for the rest of the season. Because Serena Williams, the tour’s best player, skips Indian Wells, that tournament loses its luster as a prelude for things to come. However, the... 

Does Antonio Cassano Deserve a Place in Italy’s World Cup Squad?

Ronaldinho: Where Did It All Go Wrong with Brazil’s World Cup Year?

Brazil have wrapped up their friendly programme prior to their World Cup squad announcement on May 7. Coach Luiz Felipe Scolari now appears to have a firm idea of the ins and outs after a year of friendly auditions, not to mention a Confederations Cup title, since he took over from Mano Menezes.
