McIlroy dating Wozniacki?

Caroline Wozniacki and Rory McIlroy
U.S. Open champion Rory McIlroy's relationship is over with his girlfriend, Holly Sweeney, amid speculation that he and tennis star Caroline Wozniacki are now an item.

"Rory McIlroy's long-term relationship with Holly Sweeney came to an amicable end before the British Open," an International SportsManagement spokesman said Monday.

Photos were posted on the Internet of McIlroy and Wozniacki apparently kissing Sunday night in London. The photos were removed later.

McIlroy, who won the U.S. Open last month, finished tied for 25th place Sunday at the British Open. The tournament was won by his ISM stablemate and fellow countryman Darren Clarke.

Tiger Woods' ex-wife Elin Nordegren finds new man

Tiger Woods' ex-wife Elin Nordegren finds new man

Miss Nordegren, 31, who divorced the golf superstar after his relationships with other women were revealed, is said to be involved with Jamie Dingman, a wealthy American investor.

According to the New York Post's Page Six column Mr Dingman, the son of billionaire Michael Dingman, spent time with Miss Nordegren in Florida and Sweden recently.

They reportedly met at a Red Cross Ball in Florida and were photographed near Miss Nordegren's home in Sweden this week.

Mis Nordegren and Woods divorced in August, nine months after the golfer crashed his car into a tree outside their home in Florida.

His indiscretions were subsequently exposed and he lost millions of dollars in sponsorships before taking a hiatus from the game.

Miss Nordegren reportedly received a settlement of around $100 million (£62 million) and joint custody of the couple's two children.

Mr Dingman is said to be an expert in emerging markets in China.

A friend said he was "very private" and told the New York Post: "He's never been so happy. He and Elin have strong feelings for each other. He's a classic all-American guy."

Golf Channel u-turns on Woods' announcement

Golf Channel, u-turns, Tiger Woods, announcement,
The Golf Channel has done a u-turn on a Twitter report after appearing to say that Tiger Woods would be making a "special announcement" on Monday morning.



The Golf Channel reported Monday that Woods' agent Mark Steinberg has joined Excel Sports Management, two months after leaving International Management Group. Steinberg has represented Woods since 1999.



The Golf Channel first reported the Woods' announcement Sunday night on its Twitter account, but it did not provide any details and a check on Monday morning showed the Golf Channel had removed the tweet from Twitter.



NBC Sports also reported late Sunday that "Woods will sit down with (anchor) Kelly Tilghman" to make the announcement.



The Golf Channel then posted a story on their website Monday morning saying Tilghman would be interviewing Woods' agent Steinberg "about his business endeavours" and "Woods would not be present during the interview."

Yao Ming Retiring? Chinese Fans Hope Not Yet

Yao Ming, retirements, Chinese, China, Sports, Players,
Beijing (CNN) -- Yao Ming fans in China reacted with shock and disbelief when they learned from U.S. media reports Friday night that their basketball idol has decided to retire.

Fans took to the Internet Friday to express their feelings about the basketball star, who plays with the Houston Rockets in the NBA.

"I did not expect his retirement to come so soon!" said a Netizen called Yilubaijiahei in a Sina Weibo microblog.

Another person who went by the name Tuzitouda in another tweet wrote: "I feel a little bit of sadness. If Big Yao retires, it is not only the end of an era, but also the end of my NBA-syndrome including those seasons when Yao played with the Rockets."

Major news portals in China put the news on their front pages.

"The U.S. media say Yao has formally decided to retire, Chinese superstar says goodbye to NBA," reads the headline of Tencent Sports.

But Sina Sports, a section of Sina. com, one of China's biggest web portals, says its reporter reached Zhang Mingji soon after hearing the media reports.

Zhang, who is one of Yao's agents, said Yao did not announce his retirement and did not inform the NBA and the Houston Rockets that he was doing so, as reported by the U.S. media.

Yao's agent told CNN that he is giving a news conference in Shanghai on July 20 to talk about "his future career plans."

Chinese sports writers and fans believe that Yao's retirement, of course, will happen sooner or later, although they hope it will be later.

Sports, College, World Series 2011, Bracket Update, Florida, Vanderbilt, Win; Texas, North Carolina, Fall
The first day of the 2011 College World Series came to a close on Saturday night as the Florida Gators downed the Texas Longhorns, 8-3, to advance to the winner’s side of their bracket. The matchups in Omaha are structured as two mini-tournaments leading up to the final series on June 27. Vanderbilt also took care of business on Saturday in the early game, handing North Carolina a 7-2 loss.

Bracket 1 has been updated to reflect the changes at the NCAA website. On Monday, Texas and North Carolina will face-off in an elimination game at 2 p.m. EDT. Later in the day, at 7 p.m. EDT, Florida and Vanderbilt will battle it out to take the upper-hand in the bracket going forward. The winner of that game will only have to win once more to advance to the final series while the loser will have to win three more times.

In bracket 2, California, Virginia, South Carolina and Texas A&M are all set to begin play on Sunday and will go through the same process the four teams in bracket 1 are. It all leads up to the final three games of the college baseball season in just over a week.

Vancouver Canucks Flasher Lost Her Job! (Video)

The Vancouver Canucks flasher showed off her breasts during the Vancouver Canucks-San Jose Sharks NHL Playoff Game on May 18, 2011. Here is the Vancouver Canucks Flasher Photo:

Vancouver Canucks Flasher Lost Her Job!
The Green Men have officially been one-upped, if that's a word. The two men in green body suits have been fixtures at Vancouver Canucks games, mocking opponents as they sit in the penalty box.



But the two green men have been topped by another pair. A female Vancouver Canucks flasher fan flashed her breasts during Game 2 of the NHL Western Conference Final on May 18, 2011.



The Vancouver Canucks flasher decided to show her wares while Sharks forward Ben Eager sat in the penalty box. The female Canucks fan lifted up her Henrik Sedin jersey and showed off her breasts.




CBC cameras captured the Vancouver Canucks flasher in all her glory, making it the most NSFW moment to air on the network since Joey Jeremiah lost his virginity on Degrassi High.



We're not sure if this Vancouver Canucks flasher fan really gets the point. After all, the goal of fans like the Green Men is to torment opposing players.

If anything, taking off your shirt and exposing your breasts is rewarding your opponents.



For those who care, the Canucks went on to beat the Sharks 7-3 to take a 2-0 lead in the NHL Western Conference Finals.

Canucks Flasher Caught On TV



VANCOUVER -- An extremely enthusiastic Vancouver Canucks fan was caught on live television pressing her bare breasts up against the penalty box during the team's victory over the San Jose Sharks, the Vancouver Sun reported Thursday.
The woman's uncensored show of support seemed to be directed towards Sharks forward Ben Eager, who was sat in the penalty box during the third-period of Vancouver's 7-3 win on Wednesday night.
Eager didn't visibly react when the woman lifted her Canucks jersey and bared herflesh. However, the six-second display was picked up by the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation (CBC) and shown across the country.
CBC head of media relations Jeff Keay explained that the footage was picked up by an in-house camera that CBC didnot control.

Five advantages of trading forex market .

1. 24 Hour Market: Since the forex market is worldwide, trading is continuous as long as there is a market open somewhere in the world. Trading starts when the markets open in Australia on Sunday evening, and ends after markets close in New York on Friday.

2. High Liquidity: Liquidity is the ability of an asset to be converted into cash quickly and without any price discount. In forex this means we can move large amounts of money into and out of foreign currency with minimal price movement.

3. Low Transaction Cost: In forex, typically the cost for a transaction is built into the price. It is called the spread. The spread is the difference between the buying and selling price.

4. Leverage: Forex Brokers allow traders to trade the market using leverage. Leverage is the ability to trade more money on the market than what is actually in the trader's account. If you were to trade at 50:1 leverage, you could trade $50 on the market for every $1 that was in your account. This means you could control a trade of $50,000 using only $1000 of capital.

5. Profit Potential from Rising and Falling Prices: The forex market has no restrictions for directional trading. This means, if you think a currency pair is going to increase in value; you can buy it, or go long. Similarly, if you think it could decrease in value you can sell it, or go short.
