"Close, But No Cigar"
So yesterday I watched 19 year old Heather Watson come incredibly close to beating Maria Sharapova in the US Open. Watson fought hard, but lost in three sets to Maria.

Our school’s team isn’t too hot in our district. Two of six schools in our district go...

2011 Rogers Cup: Early Upsets (QF's)
As the title suggests, there’s been major upsets this year in Montreal. Wimbledon and the French had some as well, but nothing like in Canada this year.

Dodig def. Nadal 1-6, 7-6(5), 7-6(5)
Nadal had it in the...
