Spain have undoubtedly been the most successful national team of recent times, with victories in the 2010 World Cup and the European Championships of 2008 and 2012 solidifying their status as the team to beat on the international stage. Yet while the current generation have certainly amassed more trophies than generations past, Spain has a proud history of producing quality players, some of whom played...

It doesn’t get much better in tennis than the BNP Paribas Open in terms of non-Grand Slam events. Fans have been treated to a number of thrilling matches, many of which ended in upsets in the early stages. With Day 8 officially in the books, we are steamrolling toward the men’s and women’s singles championships. While there have been a number of highly seeded players who bowed out...

Indian Wells tennis has seen its share of ATP top seeds burst into flames. The desert’s hard-court surface can be as fickle as the blustery winds, playing slow and unpredictable. Or conditions may be calm in the thin air, perfect for playing low slice. But none of these nuances have hardly mattered in 2014 as the quarterfinals have been set.

Defending world champions Red Bull are struggling. In fact, for the first time since 2009, they will not enter the year as favourites.

Robert Garrigus held onto a narrow lead through three rounds at the 2014 Valspar Championship at Innisbrook, but his final-round collapse gave way to a dramatic finish. Kevin Na, John Senden and Justin Rose all had strong performances on Saturday to remain near the top of the leaderboard at the end of Round 3. Rose also faltered on Sunday with the trophy on the line, as the tournament came down...

I was thrilled to see how well Henrik Stenson played in the second half of the 2013 season. He overpowered golf courses and opponents, won money titles on both sides of the Atlantic and, as bit of frosting on the cake, he won the $10 million FedEx Cup bonus.

Heading into the final weekend of this year’s Six Nations championship, we have three teams left in the running to claim Europe’s most coveted title. While England attempt to close the gap in points difference against Italy, France and Ireland collide at the Stade de France in the hopes of producing a tournament victor. Joe Schmidt’s men are the best-placed team to bring home the...

Have you ever been more excited about the start of a Formula One season? The formbook shredder and reset button that is the introduction of 1.6 litre turbocharged V6 powerunits means the Australian Grand Prix is the most anticipated race in years, but that excitement is not universally shared by all 11 teams. The major regulation changes—perhaps the biggest season-to-season alterations in the...

The European Tour moves on to Morocco’s Golf du Palais Royal course for the Trophee Hassan II this week, following on from the recent Cadillac Championship in Florida. This fifth annual edition of the tournament sees Marcel Siem aim to defend his trophy on “a pure links course, with its bumpy fairways built on sand, and its greens sitting on formidable slopes,” as described by...
