The final round of The Players Championship at TPC Sawgrass figures to be a barnburner. Chris Kirk has the lead at 10 under par after firing a 68 on Saturday. However, that lead is anything but safe, because 30 players are within five strokes of the lead. All of them will have a chance to make a run at the championship. Kevin Kisner, Ben Martin and Bill Haas are tied for second, one stroke behind Kirk. Adam...

Rugby’s residency ruling is set for closer inspection after the increase in southern-hemisphere players jumping ship for European nations. It is a move that could bring a sense of balance back to certain countries. The Telegraph (h/t ESPN Scrum) reported this week that the current three-year rule for residency changes could be altered to “preserve the integrity of the international game,”...

It’s safe to say the 2015 Players Championship has not gone according to script through two rounds. Kevin Na and Jerry Kelly are tied for the lead at eight under par, while Masters champion Jordan Spieth is on his way home after missing the cut.

A little less than a month ago, Jordan Spieth put on his first, and likely not last, green jacket after winning the 2015 Masters. In the three tournaments since, the 21-year-old has failed to capture that same magic, culminating with Friday’s missed cut at the 2015 Players Championship. Spieth‘s poor first round ultimately doomed him. Despite a somewhat up and down Round 2, he still...

Although Jerry Kelly and Kevin Na top the leaderboard at The Players, the PGA Tour breathed a big sigh of relief when Tiger Woods played his way back into the tournament after shooting three over par on Thursday. Rory McIlroy held steady, finishing just three back of the lead, while Phil Mickelson and Jordan Spieth could not find enough game to make the weekend. Rickie Fowler proved he is for real,...

After an opening-round 69 at the 2015 Players Championship, Rory McIlroy was in a great position to make a move on the leaders at TPC Sawgrass on Friday. Although he remains on the periphery a bit, a second-round 71 ensured that he’ll head into the weekend in title contention. His four-under for the tournament is good enough for a share of 13th, four shots off Kevin Na and Jerry Kelly. As if...

Often one of the most competitive events on the PGA Tour calendar, there are no shortage of contenders...

Jordan Spieth’s run at the 2015 Players Championship lasted a total of two days. The 21-year-old missed the cut despite a solid effort on Friday in which he shot an even-par 72, but a 75 in the first round proved to be too much for him to overcome. It was apparent over the course of both days that Spieth wasn’t in a rhythm hitting the ball. He never found a way to carry momentum...

Phil Mickelson has now missed three cuts in nine starts this season. The 44-year-old Hall of Famer and five-time major champion bowed out Friday after two rounds at the 2015 Players Championship with a two-day score of 149 (five over par). Bob Harig of ESPN.com provided comments from Mickelson following the second day: It’s not time to hit the panic button for Lefty’s legion of fans...
