Sergio Garcia Can’t Think We’re This Stupid, Unless He’s That Stupid

Sergio Garcia sat with members of the European media on Wednesday and apologized for his ill-timed and poorly-worded “joke” about Tiger Woods at Tuesday night’s European PGA Tour black-tie event, suggesting he would serve the best golfer in the world fried chicken for dinner when they play in the U.S. Open next month. Garcia later apologized to those who were offended, the European... 

PGA Tour Has Lost the Anchored Putter Battle; Now It Just Has to Admit It

The USGA and R&A have officially agreed to adopt Rule 14-1b of the rules of golf, which “prohibits anchoring the club in making a stroke. The new Rule will take effect on January 1, 2016, in accordance with the regular four-year cycle for changes to the Rules of Golf.”  There’s more, via USGA.org: Rule 14-1b, which was proposed on November 28, 2012, has now been given final... 

World Cup Qualifying: Klinsmann Ignoring Donovan Is Short-Sighted and Stubborn

Jurgen Klinsmann is playing a dangerous game with his latest roster of U.S. national team call-ups. If Klinsmann doesn’t get the results needed in the next trio of World Cup qualifiers, everything—Klinsmann‘s entire tenure as manager—will hinge on one decision. Why is Landon Donovan not in camp? It’s one thing to leave Donovan off the list of players for the next round... 

Tiger Woods, Sergio Garcia and How Winning Is Always More Boring Than Imploding

Tiger Woods walked up to the 17th tee at the TPC at Sawgrass on Sunday, tied for the lead at The Players Championship with Sergio Garcia after both birdied the previous hole. He placed his ball on the tee and calmly smacked it into the heart of the island green, safe and dry. Woods two-putted the 17th and the 18th to win his second Players Championship—the 78th victory in his 300th career start.... 

Masters 2013: Imagining the Greatest Augusta Foursome of All Time

It’s an amateur golfers’ dream to play Augusta National Golf Club. I have never been fortunate enough to play Augusta, but I do know a few members of the media who won the annual lottery to play a round the Monday after the tournament. Their memories of the course, the history, and the feeble attempts at recreating some of the great shots in Masters lore have been my own personal lifeline... 

Rory McIlroy, Tiger Woods and the PGA Tour’s Major Problem

There are 14 PGA Tour events on the calendar in advance of the first major. Heading into the Masters, which begins on April 11th, Tiger Woods and Rory McIlroy each will have teed off in five of those 14 tournaments. McIlroy is off to a terrible start of the 2013 season. In four starts he has one top-10 finish. He placed 45th last weekend at the Shell Houston Open, originally scheduled... 

A Timeline of Tiger Woods’ Road Back to No. 1 in the World

With his win at the Arnold Palmer Invitational, his third win in four starts in 2013, Tiger Woods officially became the No. 1 golfer in the world again, a distinction the best player of this—or any—generation has not held since October, 2010. To say Woods is back would be an understatement.  The road to get back for Woods has been as long and circuitous as any in the history of American... 

Tiger Woods Wins Farmers Insurance Open: Why PGA Desperately Needs Tiger of Old

“How about Tiger? Did you see that chip on number four? Man, it’s great to have him back.”  If you are a sports fan, you probably had a conversation that started just like this at some point over weekend. I had that conversation twice on Sunday, first with the waiter at our favorite breakfast joint and second with my father, who can’t be bothered with golf unless Woods... 

Predicting the Next U.S. Soccer Players To Play in Europe

A generation ago, you could hardly find more than a few American soccer players in Europe, but now there are dozens playing in top leagues all over the world. Soccer, no matter what you call it, has always been a global game, and this generation of United States players is finally becoming an integrated part of that international community. MLS has helped develop many of the top American players in... 

Contenders to Be the Next Face of U.S. Men’s International Soccer

Who is the face of American soccer? Clint Dempsey is the best American field player on the planet, an honor he has taken from legendary midfielder Landon Donovan. Tim Howard may be the best American soccer player of all time, but it’s Michael Bradley—the previous coach’s kid—who has become the face of the U.S. Men’s National Team. Okay, so who is next? Who will be the...
