If we’re being honest, the 2015 Formula One grid doesn’t contain the most spectacular liveries. Variety and creativity are in short supply, with a host of teams basing their colour schemes around grey and all but two outfits featuring at least a speck of red on their cars.

There’s a saying in golf that no person is bigger than the game…unless that person is Tiger Woods, who turns logic inside out and upside down. And his presence at the 2015 Masters, now that he confirmed his participation, will do exactly that. Rory McIlroy’s attempt to win a career Grand Slam? Back page stuff. Open up the big top and send in the clowns. The Tiger Woods Circus...

Rafael Nadal has reigned over men’s tennis every spring for the last decade. The King of Clay dominates his surface like no other player in ATP history. And this year, the switch to dirt can’t come soon enough for the Spaniard. After several months of disappointing results on grass and hard courts, Nadal looks increasingly vulnerable.
