2015 Masters: Why Jordan Spieth’s Scoring Records Are Not Quite What They Seem

Jordan Spieth has officially reached superstar status in the game of golf. There is absolutely no question about that. At the age of 21, Spieth managed to hold off some of the biggest names in golf to become just the fifth player in history to go wire-to-wire at the Masters. Spieth’s commanding victory last week at Augusta National deserves a great deal of praise, and it will almost certainly...

5 of the Most Interesting Radio Messages from Chinese Grand Prix

Team radio messages are usually nothing more than mere accessories across Formula One grand prix weekends. They offer hints about how a race will unfold and offer an insight on the drivers’ mindsets as they compete at mind-blowing speeds, but are rarely integral to the show. That theory was proven wrong over the Chinese Grand Prix as Nico Rosberg, the runner-up in last year’s drivers’...

When Universitario de Sucre took on Bolivar in Bolivia’s top division on Saturday, it was a case of men against boys.  Literally.  Universitario de Sucre were so incensed that the league refused to cancel the match and allow them to prepare for a big Copa Libertadores clash on Tuesday night that they decided to put out this line-up.  Universitario de Sucre start with just 7 players... 

Masters 2015: Analyzing Leaderboard Results for Underrated Names at Augusta

Is Jack Sock Emerging as New Hope for US Men’s Tennis?

Men from the United States once ruled tennis with an iron grip. Between 1974 and 2003, American males accounted for 46 Grand Slam wins, dwarfing all other nations. But like most dynasties in history, they lost control of their throne and were toppled by players from other countries. The forecast looked great during the 1970s and 1980s, which were led by the equally volatile and boisterous John...
