The Australian Open always feels weird. First of all, it’s awkward to be talking about tennis in mid-January. But that’s summer in Australia. It’s also a little confusing that each day’s schedule starts at 7:00 the night before and the night sessions begin at 3 a.m. That’s what a 16-hour time difference can do for you, though.four women’s semifinalists are Wozniacki, Serena, Ivanovic and Sharapova

Or London’s brilliant and glorious Olympic Games. New stars emerged in 2012. From Gabby Douglas to Missy Franklin to Andy Murray to Mike Trout to Robert Griffin III. We had a Triple Crown in baseball and a near-Triple Crown in horse racing. We had three perfect games in the Majors for the first time ever, yet none of them made my list of the top games of the year.
