The Best and Worst Dressed Tennis Players at the 2016 Summer Olympics

Tennis players who participated in the parade of nations during the opening ceremony of the 2016 Olympics wore the same outfit as their compatriots.

Caroline Wozniacki’s 2016 Summer Olympics dream came to an end on Monday, as Petra Kvitova defeated the former world No. 1, 6-2, 6-4, in the round of 32 of the women’s tennis tournament in Rio de Janeiro.  The Danish star continued her poor 2016 campaign with another underwhelming outing, putting up little resistance on her way out of the Games.

Formula 1’s Latest Rumours and Talk: Kevin Magnussen, Jenson Button and More

Kevin Magnussen was delighted when Renault offered him the opportunity to keep his Formula One career alive at the beginning of 2016, but the first half of the season has been rather depressing for the Danish driver.

Not a part of the Olympics since 1904, when George Lyon claimed the gold medal for Canada (as you’ve surely heard more times than you care to by now), golf makes its return with a four-round stroke-play tournament in Rio. In ranking the field, we don’t know how the Gil Hanse-designed par-71 course will play, so a “horses-for-courses” angle is out. Instead, we’ll look at... 

Angel Correa Takes Up Messi’s Mantle as Argentina Get Olympic Bid Back on Track

After enduring a disappointing start to their men’s football campaign, the Argentina team needed a big result in their second match. The South American giants still have plenty to work on, but if Angel Correa stays fit and at his blistering best, they cannot be ruled out in the medal fight.  It is hard to imagine worse preparations for a major tournament than those of Julio Olarticoechea’s...
