Brazil Struggle for Answers Against Ecuador in Copa America Opener

For those watching at home, this was somewhat inevitable. As Brazil sleepwalked their way towards a goalless draw with Ecuador in their Copa America opener on Saturday evening, all that was wrong with Dunga and his side was laid bare. Yes, this Ecuador team is in form and sits joint top of the 2018 FIFA World Cup qualifying group. They are well disciplined and tactically organised, but surely Brazil,... 

France’s Olivier Giroud Underlines Strong Pre-Euro 2016 Form with Scotland Brace

UEFA Euro 2016 hosts France continued to warm up for the tournament nicely with a 3-0 friendly win over Scotland on Saturday at Stade Saint-Symphorien. Arsenal’s Olivier Giroud scored twice, while fellow Gunners star Laurent Koscielny grabbed another in a clinical first-half display from Les Bleus. Didier Deschamps’ men started their final preparations for this summer’s... 

Memorial Tournament 2016: Saturday Leaderboard Scores and Highlights

The third round of the Memorial Tournament from Muirfield Village Golf Club in Dublin, Ohio, was able to squeeze in a complete day’s play despite a weather delay of more than two hours.   Matt Kuchar continues to hold the lead at Muirfield with a two-under on Saturday and a 14-under for the tournament. But like Friday, he has some company in first, as William McGirt and Gary Woodland join... 

French Open Champ Garbine Muguruza the Heir Apparent to Serena Williams’ Throne

Tears forecast Garbine Muguruza‘s championship pedigree. Last year, after losing to Serena Williams in the Wimbledon final, Muguruza retreated to her chair and started crying. Unlike many other young players who suffer defeat to one of the greatest of all time, Muguruza was feeling none of that “just happy to be here” stuff. Instead, she sobbed. Holding the runner-up trophy was not... 

Serena Williams Facing a New Reality After Falling Short at Another Grand Slam

This is the hard truth: Serena Williams is not the dominant force in women’s tennis anymore. She’s the best player, but she isn’t dominant. You saw it Saturday in the French Open final—the last point. That’s when you saw Williams’ hopelessness and a little panic. She had a lob go over her head and turned to start running back to get it. Serena of five years ago could... 

Jordan Spieth at Memorial Tournament 2016: Saturday Leaderboard Score, Reaction

Following a two-over showing Saturday at the Memorial Tournament in Dublin, Ohio, it feels safe to say Jordan Spieth won’t be hoisting championship hardware at Muirfield Village Golf Club on Sunday evening.  Although Spieth came out on top at the Dean & Deluca Invitational a week ago and appeared primed for a surge in advance of the U.S. Open, he squandered that momentum and now... 

French Open 2016 Women’s Final: Predictions for Garbine Muguruza at Wimbledon

Garbine Muguruza beat Serena Williams to win her first Grand Slam title at the French Open on Saturday, and when the dust—or more accurately, clay—settles, her attention will be focused on Wimbledon. The Spaniard won 7-5, 6-4 to beat the world No. 1 at Roland Garros—the second time the pair have met in a major final after Williams defeated her last year at SW19. This year, Muguruza... 

Hungary Win Shows Toni Kroos Is Germany’s Boss but Doesn’t Answer All Questions

Germany won their second and final warm-up match before UEFA Euro 2016 on Saturday, beating Hungary 2-0 at Veltins–Arena in Gelsenkirchen, Germany. In many ways, it was a typical pre-tournament friendly against a lowly opponent that never looked to pose a threat to the current World Cup holders. As so often is the case, the match fizzled out once both teams started to make substitutions... 

Ranking the Top 10 Women’s Players After the 2016 French Open

With a win over Serena Williams in the 2016 French Open, Garbine Muguruza moves to a career-high No. 2 in the WTA Rankings (to be released Monday). She also joins a number of players inching closer to taking the top spot from Williams. Muguruza defeated Williams 7-5, 6-4 on Saturday. Now the Spaniard goes from potential star to the newest “it girl” on the WTA Tour. But where does she fall... 

What Serena Williams’ Loss to Garbine Muguruza Means for Wimbledon 2016

Serena Williams‘ quest for a second straight French Open title came up just short as the world’s top-ranked player was defeated by Garbine Muguruza in the championship match. It represented a rare occasion where Williams was outplayed. The 22-year-old Spanish rising star showed no signs of being concerned about the top seed’s immense power, instead using that pace to set herself...
