Pettersson shot an eight-under 62 and currently sits alone in first place. It’s not like that was unexpected, though. The 34-year-old lives in Raleigh and went to school...

Baby steps to a major championship. That’s all it takes.

If Dempsey were to join Liverpool and put forth the Premier League success he has displayed with Fulham, it would do wonders for American soccer. Fortunately for Americans, it at least sounds like a deal is possible (via goal.com): Hours after the Craven Cottage...

A lack of veterans doesn’t mean a lack of talent. Sure, the 2012 London Games—because of age restrictions—won’t be home to all-world stars such as Lionel Messi, Cristiano Ronaldo or Wayne Rooney over the next month. But, fortunately for diehard football fans, it will be home to young studs such as Neymar, Adrian, Hulk and Edinson Cavani, and that’s just the very beginning...
