Wimbledon 2013: Breaking Down Top Contenders at All-England Club

After Rafael Nadal captured his eighth French Open title, we look ahead to the next Grand Slam of the year, Wimbledon. Roger Federer has historically owned Wimbledon, racking up an impressive seven singles titles at the tournament.

Roger Federer Must Treat Wimbledon As Last Chance at a Major

Roger Federer won his first title of the year on Sunday and it couldn’t have come at a better time. Wimbledon—which Federer has won a record seven times—begins next week and the aging 31-year-old doesn’t have many more opportunities to capture another Grand Slam singles title.

Rafael Nadal’s Guide to Claiming His 3rd Wimbledon Title

Tiger Woods Will Bounce Back After US Open Letdown

Tiger Woods may be coming off one of his worst outings at a major in his career, but he will bounce back. The 37-year-old struggled mightily at the 2013 U.S. Open over the weekend, ultimately posting a 13-over-par 293. In majors where he’s made the cut, it was his worst score in relation to par in his entire career. In his final two rounds at Merion Golf Club, he went a combined 10-over par. But... 

Phil Mickelson Will Be in Contention on Final Day at 2013 U.S. Open

Phil Mickelson had three top-five finishes at the U.S. Open from 2008 to 2010 before the wheels fell off. But there are a couple reasons why I believe Lefty will contend for the 2013 U.S. Open championship on the final day at Merion Golf Club.
