The Spanish Armada arrived in Mar del Plata, Argentina as underdogs, but as of today they are leading the host country 2-1. Yesterday, David Nalbandian defeated David Ferrer in the first singles match, followed by an impressive performance by Feliciano Lopez, who beat Juan Martin del Potro.

Wherever Rafa is, I'm sure he's jumping with joy, tendonitis and all... Read Full Story

Nalbandian gave Argentina its only point in... Read Full Story

Like every other installment in this series, I expect this one to end with the rugby equivalent of the denouement of Se7en ; except it will be Scotland's hopes in Brad Pitt's box, rather than Gwyneth Paltrow's head. Plenty of opinion is focusing on the errant view that Wales do not like this fixture and that their record is poor at... Read Full Story

Mike Phillips and Cooper were the only two scrum-halves selected by Gatland when the New Zealander announced his Six... Read Full Story
Friday night’s showdown at Suncorp Stadium shapes as one of the most important games in the short but spectacular career of Brisbane’s new Test centre Israel Folau.
