In case you are wondering if there is anything else newsworthy in sports other than Tiger Woods, when he is playing, his fans will tell you a quick and resounding no, which is why yet, again, he is the lead story for the day. In the final round of the 91st PGA Championship, Tiger went in with a two stroke lead and, as usual, favored to win. Padraig Harrington was expected to give him a run for his money (of which he has lots and lots), but Y.E. Yang of South Korea snuck up and took the lead from T Dub. Tiger's chance at a championship win this year came down the final (18th) hole, but Yang snatched the heaviest trophy in sports from Woods' paws to beat him by three strokes overall. Grrrrr.
As quickly as the championship escaped Woods, Jamaica's 100m sprinter Usain Bolt won the world championship in Berlin with a time of 9.58 seconds beating the world record again. His previous best time was 9.69 at the Beijing Olympics. With a last name such as his, so many bad puns come to mind, but we'll refrain from striking.
In tennis news, it was the Andy and Andy show in Montreal for the Roger's Cup, but only one of the deuces would find love. Andy Murray beat Jo-Wilfried Tsonga, while Andy Roddick got served and lost to Juan Martin Del Potro.
