Tiger Woods returned to PGA Tour competition at the 2014 Quicken Loans National beginning on Thursday at Congressional Country Club in Bethesda, Maryland. Much of the attention would be focused on the game’s biggest star, who also serves as tournament host, along with the prodigies playing with him in Jordan Spieth and Jason Day. Woods hadn’t played since the WGC-Cadillac...

The fact that Tiger Woods struggled through his first 13 holes during Round 1 of the Quicken Loans National was not overly surprising when you consider that it had been three-and-a-half months since Woods last teed it up at a professional event. What was surprising about Woods’ opening round, however, was which areas of his game he struggled with en route to a three-over-par score of 74. Woods,...

Tiger Woods had not played a competitive round of golf in 109 days before teeing it up in the opening round of the Quicken Loans National at the famed Congressional Country Club in Bethesda, Maryland, on Thursday. He is Tiger, yes. But for much of his round Thursday he looked more like any other golfer who was attempting to play for the first time in more than three months after undergoing back surgery. That...

When Tiger Woods announced his PGA Tour return, one of the things he made sure to note was how much rust there would be after nearly four months off. Tiger’s first round at the 2014 Quicken Loans National confirmed that, as he posted a three-over-par 74.

When a Formula One driver recovers from a qualifying position of ninth to finish second the following day, as Lewis Hamilton did in last weekend’s Austrian Grand Prix, it cannot be considered anything else but a truly fantastic result. The 2008 world champion drove admirably, overtaking five cars on the first lap alone to effectively render his poor performance on Saturday irrelevant. Hamilton’s...

Tiger Woods‘ long-awaited return to the tee box is finally here. The former World No. 1’s nearly four-month break following back surgery concludes Thursday, when he will tee off at the 2014 Quicken Loans National. The event, which is hosted by Woods and benefits his charity, has often been pegged as a likely comeback spot as he prepares for The Open Championship. Woods, 38, underwent a...

Scotland vs South Africa forms the final fixture of Scotland’s summer tour. It is also the only barrier standing between the Scots and a clean sweep of wins from these four games. The South Africa game in Port Elizabeth undoubtedly provides coach Vern Cotter’s sternest test yet. Previous tour wins have come against USA, Canada and an under-strength Argentina. South Africa, buoyed by their...

MONTREAL — The first time I saw Simona de Silvestro was from the grandstands on the weekend of the 2006 Canadian Grand Prix. She was 17 years old, driving in Formula BMW, and in two races at the Circuit Gilles-Villeneuve she finished fourth (setting the fastest lap) and then third. The next time I saw the Swiss driver was earlier this month, again in Montreal. This time, we met in the paddock...
