Motor racing appeared to die its latest death in Sunday’s Italian Grand Prix when Kevin Magnussen, the McLaren driver, was punished for defending his position. The Danish rookie was running in fifth place on the 31st lap of the race at Monza when he found himself in the way of Valtteri Bottas, his Williams counterpart, who was in the midst of his recovery to fourth place by the chequered...

The best players don’t always make the best team. It’s the case for all club sides and it’s certainly the case for England’s national team—as proved by their 2-0 win against Switzerland. Steve Stone, the former Nottingham Forest and England winger, was the perfect example of that. He wouldn’t have represented his country as one of the best 11 on merit, but he was...

Marin Cilic made short work of Kei Nishikori on Monday night to win the 2014 U.S. Open men’s final 6-3, 6-3, 6-3 in New York and claim his first ever Grand Slam title.

Apparently, being forced to play golf for four weeks in a row with a total of $67 million up for grabs was a bit too much for Lefty. Mickelson made his objections known two weeks ago during the Deutsche Bank Championship, as reported by Doug Ferguson of The Associated Press, via GolfChannel.com: I’m in a bit of predicament,...

It is impossible that Spain will reach the dizzy heights of the past six years ever again; they will never have the same players, the same urgencies—the perfect storm. But their easy 5-1 victory over Macedonia on Monday night showed the fans, the media, but principally the players and management themselves, that they are back on the right road again. Macedonia never looked like they would be...

Former Formula One world champion Michael Schumacher has returned home to continue his recovery from severe head wounds suffered over eight months ago in a skiing accident. The retired racing driver’s manager, Sabine Kehm, confirmed the news on Tuesday, but highlighted that Schumacher was still a long way from a full recovery after hitting his head on a rock in Meribel in France last December,...

The domestic season across Europe got into full swing last weekend as the Aviva Premiership and Guinness PRO12 joined the month-old Top 14 in action. So, while the French top flight is taking shape after four rounds, its counterparts are still in their embryonic stages. This ranking will therefore give a little more weight to the form of the best French teams that have a few more weeks of hard graft...

Grand Slam victories don’t come much more emphatic than that. Marin Cilic hammered Kei Nishikori in the 2014 U.S. Open final 6-3, 6-3, 6-3 to finally make good on his longstanding potential and snaffle his first-ever Grand Slam title. The Croatian has been striving for this moment for many years, and although it may seem as though he’s been on the scene for a long, long time, he’s...

Marin Cilic was overcome with emotion after clinching his first Grand Slam title in Monday’s 2014 U.S. Open final, but it will be his first of many if the past two weeks are any indication. Cilic defeated No. 10 Kei Nishikori in straight sets Monday, dominating yet another opponent en route to winning the final Grand Slam of 2014. He was in control from the onset, posting a 6-3, 6-3, 6-3 victory...
