British Open 2012: Tiger Woods’ Poor Sunday Won’t Prevent Strong Finish to 2012

Entering Sunday at the 2012 Open Championship at Royal Lytham & St. Anne’s, Tiger Woods was the player to watch. He wasn’t in the lead, but he was well within striking distance. His three-over par 75 took him out of contention, yet it was his overall performance that should have the rest of the world shaking.  Lest anyone start talking about a choke, remember that if Woods hadn’t...

Novak Djokovic Defeats Jo-Wilfried Tsonga to Advance to 2012 French Open Semis

Survive and advance seems to be the name of the game for Novak Djokovic in the 2012 French Open, as he needed another late comeback, this time against Jo-Wilfried Tsonga, to advance to the semifinals.  Djokovic came out of the gate like a man on a mission, taking the first set, 6-1, and looking like the best player in the world. His momentum from that marathon match against Andreas Seppi in the... 

Phil Mickelson Would Be the Perfect Ambassador for San Diego Padres

Phil Mickelson is one of San Diego’s biggest icons. The San Diego Padres need some kind of spark to get fans excited about the franchise as they go through a rebuilding process on the field. It would seem to be a perfect match.  Current Padres owner John Moores put the franchise up for sale in April 2011 again after a failed sale to a group led by Jeff Moorad, who still owns 49 percent of... 

Rafael Nadal: Drop in Rankings Makes Rafa More Dangerous at French Open

Rafael Nadal has set the bar so high for himself that when he isn’t winning every tournament he enters, then questions have to be asked about if he is starting to slip, or if others have started to catch up to him.  Now, with his world ranking falling all the way down to No. 3, Nadal is trying to get past all the controversy of the blue clay at the Madrid Open, win the Internazionali...

Tiger Woods: Improved Putting at Honda Classic Proves Tiger Is Back

Tiger Woods made the adjustments that he needed to at the Honda Classic, and the results were better than anyone could have anticipated.  We have been searching for a sign that Woods is coming out of his two-year slump.

Tiger Woods: Fred Couples Made Mistake Giving Tiger Spot on Presidents Cup Team

Tiger Woods has been irrelevant on the golf course for the better part of two years. He is still fascinating to watch because he is who he is, but that does not change the fact that he is not a good golfer right now. Nothing Woods has done justifies Fred Couples guaranteeing him a spot on the United States Presidents Cup team.  Even Geoff Ogilvy, who is on the international team, was quick to...
