Roger Federer’s Belief He Can Return to No. 1 Ranking Shouldn’t Be Dismissed

I learned a long time ago not to doubt Roger Federer. Obviously, I don’t pick him to win every match or assume he’ll win every tournament. And yes, I think the torch has been passed to Novak Djokovic, Andy Murray and Rafael Nadal. But when Federer says he can return to the No. 1 ranking on the ATP Tour this season, well, you’ll have to forgive me for at least considering it a possibility.... 

Novak Djokovic: Rivalry with Andy Murray Will Dominate Headlines in 2013

In 2011, Novak Djokovic let the tennis world know he had entered the elite, winning three Grand Slams. In 2012, Andy Murray finally got over the hump, winning Olympic gold and his first Grand Slam at the U.S. Open. Now the two are on a collision course for dominance in 2013. And boy oh boy should it be fun to watch. Djokovic won the first round of this rivalry at the Australian Open, beating Murray... 

Africa Cup of Nations 2013: Day 5 Scores and Results Summary

The host country South Africa was back in action on Wednesday, looking to take control of Group A with a win over Angola, while Morocco and Cape Verde would come into play desiring three points but knowing a draw would keep them in the running to advance. In many ways, Group A is the least compelling of the four groups, as none of the tournament favorites are in play here. Still, with host nation... 

Africa Cup of Nations 2013: Players Who Must Step Up in Next Round of Group Play

After the first leg of group play has come to a close, we have a better idea of which teams are looking good and which squads need to start tweaking things at the Africa Cup of Nations.

Roger Federer Will Survive Tough Match Against Jo-Wilfried Tsonga in Quarters

Do you really think Roger Federer is going to lose to Jo-Wilfried Tsonga in an Australian Open quarterfinal?  Because I don’t. On history alone, I’m willing to bet Federer will win this match, though it certainly won’t be interesting. How do I know? Pick a factoid, any factoid. It could be because Federer has advanced to the semifinals nine straight times at the Australian... 

Elin Nordegren’s Friend Reportedly Shoots Down Possible Reunion with Tiger Woods

Would Elin Nordegren actually reunite with Tiger Woods?  According to the National Enquirer (via Fox Sports) earlier this week—an incredibly reliable source, I know—Woods proposed to his ex-wife on Christmas. The tabloid alleges that Nordegren is considering the proposal, but has asked for a ridiculous pre-nup that includes a major payout should Tiger cheat again. Thankfully, Michael... 

Rafael Nadal’s Absence from the Australian Open Diminishes the Event

The Australian Open just won’t be the same without Rafael Nadal. Sure, Nadal has always been better at Wimbledon and virtually unbeatable at the French Open. However, tennis has become a four-player game on the men’s side—alongside Rafa, it’s all about Novak Djokovic, Roger Federer and Andy Murray—and not having Nadal to complete that group is a major disappointment at...

Hong Kong Open 2012: Tee Times, Date and TV Schedule

On my list of things to do in life, play golf at a beautiful, world-class course, visit Hong Kong and get paid to do something I love are all pretty high up. So you can imagine the slight jealousy I feel toward the participants of this weekend’s Hong Kong Open. The course at Fanling and the Hong Kong Golf Club in general are gorgeous, classic grounds, making it one of the finest late-season stops...
