 Rory McIlroy laid a smack down on the golf world at this weekend's U.S. Open like few we have ever seen. He dominated from start to finish, leaving no doubt the scars from his blunder at this year's Masters are behind him and placing himself atop on the list of potential next big things.
While his 16-under-par winning score felt nice, it was obvious something was missing. It was obvious one of th...

 It's the British Open the third major of the year for pro golf. The Open Championship returns to the home of golf St. Andrews otherwise known as the Old Course. The last two times the British Open was held at St. Andrews it was the personal playground of Tiger Woods.
He won in 2000 and 2005 by a combined 13 strokes. Times have changed though and Woods is not the golfer he once was, at least not ...

 Roger Federer is the best tennis player I've ever seen play. He's better than Sampras, Agassi, Borg, McEnroe, or Conners. You'd be hard pressed not to call him the greatest tennis player that ever lived. He holds the men's record for most single's grand slam titles with 16. Wednesday's he lost to Thomas Berdych 4-6, 6-3, 1-6, 4-6 in the quarterfinals of Wimbledon.
That's the first time since 2002 ...

 Before anyone tells me I can just change the channel or not read about a story, I agree with you. That doesn't mean when I'm checking out Sportscenter or reading some national sports site that I have to like the never ending coverage of one of these topics. Here are the stories that I've kind of had it with.

 Graeme McDowell is your 2010 U.S Open Champion. Congratulations to McDowell he survived a brutal Sunday. That 4th round was every bit a U.S Open. It's just became real battle between the players and making par.

1) England, Ireland, and Northern Ireland have 6 of the top 14 players in the World, and Graeme McDowell from Northern Ireland isn't even one of them. That just shows ho...

 The U.S Open's 2nd round was completed on Friday. Graeme Mcdowell of Northern Ireland is your leader at three under. Mcdowell is a quality player, but has never won in the U.S. He was a Ryder Cup player for Europe in 2008 and has 5 professional wins. Mcdowell has played well, but he's got some of golf's biggest names chasing him.
Phil Mickelson my pre-tournament favorite fired the tournament's b...
