Biggest Storylines on the PGA Tour Ahead of the Tour Championship by Coca-Cola

At about this time last year, we were talking about how unbeatable No. 1-in-the-world-ish Rory McIlroy was. About halfway through this golf year, the same discussion surrounded college dropout* Jordan Spieth. Now? That player is Jason “Down Under Par” Day who has surged to No. 1 in the World Golf Ranking on the coattails of his PGA Championship win and two trophies in the FedEx Cup playoffs. “I... 

Ranking and Predicting the 8 Best Players at the 2015 Presidents Cup

The 2015 Presidents Cup—a dessert or appetizer to the Ryder Cup, depending on where you start—stands tall at Incheon, South Korea, for the 11th renewal. Historically, the United States has dominated the PC, with a record of 8-1-1. How will the best, or most high-profile, players perform? Right now, the International Team boasts the hottest player in Jason Day, while the United States team... 

FedEx Cup 2015 Stock Watch: Who’s Up, Who’s Down After the Deutsche Bank?

We’re halfway through the FedEx Cup Playoffs, so it’s time to take stock and see who’s worth buying and selling with two events to go. Rickie Fowler is most definitely up after his Sunday run at the Deutsche Bank Championship (DBC), his second win of the year and third of his career. Jordan Spieth missed the cut for the second week in a row and Henrik Stenson earned a solo second... 

2015 US Open: Novak Djokovic and Roger Federer on Collision Course

As the big names in men’s tennis forehand, backhand and drop shot their way into the round of 16, few have made it look easier than the No. 1 and No. 2 players in this tournament: Novak Djokovic and Roger Federer. In the 2015 U.S. Open, Djokovic has lost 23 games with Federer besting him by three, dropping just 20. The two players have had their way through the first three rounds, and though... 

Ranking the Most Scrutinized Golfers on the PGA Tour

When dealing with the most scrutinized players on the PGA Tour, it’s not a matter of game, per se, but about personality (and also game). Most of the players on this list have aspects about their style of play that bring them under the criticism of fans and golf analysts alike. For some, it may have more to do with attire, while others sit under the fire of the magnifying glass for failing to... 

2015 US Open Offering Glimpse of American Women’s Tennis’ Post-Serena Future

Serena Williams’ bracket is a veritable U.S. Women’s nationals with so many Americans clustered in one place. It’s like a sorority of the best American tennis: Alpha Beta Dropshot. Among the U.S. women remaining in the tournament are Bethanie Mattek-Sands, Madison Keys, Madison Brengle, Venus Williams and Lauren Davis—all on Serena’s side of the bracket.  That’s... 

The Top 10 Storylines Ahead of the 2015 US Open

The U.S. Open, the final major of the season, rises from Flushing Meadows on Monday. As we examine storylines, none appear greater than Serena Williams‘ bid for the calendar Grand Slam. She won the Australian Open and had that odd, delayed celebration at the end, as if her software was buffering. She won the French Open, and about four-and-a-half seconds after winning she was already thinking... 

8 Bold Predictions for the FedEx Cup Playoffs

As great as it was to see Tiger Woods near the top of a leader board for an entire tournament last weekend, he failed to make the FedEx Cup Playoffs. Despite his absence there is, indeed, lots worth talking about for this renewal. And with the Barclays holding honors in this foursome of tournaments, it’s worth noting, according to John Swantek of PGATour.com, that, “For the third time in... 

Ranking the 10 Best Golfers Yet to Win a Major Championship

Golf, while not the most purely athletic sport in the kinetic pantheon, is the cruelest. For instance, even if a player is really, really, really good and a winner of, say eight tournaments and over $40 million, he will get drawn and quartered on the “best player without a major” table (hereafter referred to as BPWAM). That’s how mean professional golf is. Once players graduate to... 

PGA Championship 2015: The Top 10 Storylines Heading into Whistling Straits

The 2015 PGA Championship returns to Whistling Straits along the fresh-water coast of Lake Michigan. It brings with it Jordan Spieth’s—with his straight-back and tight haircut—hopes of winning three majors in one year. Tiger Woods pulled that off in 2000 en route to the Tiger Slam subsequently completed at Augusta National Golf Club in 2001. Spieth would be in possession of the top...
