to move up and down
Not that you need another reason to like Tommy Haas, but we will give you one anyway.
The 34-year-old became the oldest tennis player to upset a No. 1 after he beat Novak Djokovic at the Sony Open on Tuesday night.
Even better: This outfit he wore for the last few games. The Associated Press say that he “won ugly.” Lavender shirt, red sweatband, black shoes with lime trim, and a blue hat. Haas doesn’t really care. Because he won.
“Yeah, I’m pretty pathetic I think when it comes to colour matching,” he said after the match. “Sometimes I look at myself in the mirror before I go out and I’m like, ‘Jeez, what was I thinking?’ I guess if I maybe had a clothing contract it would be different.” (Photo: Matthew Stockman/Getty Images)
Stormed away: Tiger Woods is going to have to wait one more day to try to reclaim No. 1 in the world.
Moments after Woods made a 10-foot birdie putt on the second hole, a vicious thunderstorm packing gusts that topped out at 62 mph interrupted the final round of the Arnold Palmer Invitational and wiped out play until Monday.
The storm dumped nearly 1 1/2 inches on Bay Hill and formed small ponds in the fairways — there was even a fish in the middle of the 18th fairway. The wind toppled the TV tower behind the 10th green, which was a pile of metal poles, wood, mesh netting and had a stationary camera in the middle of it all.
About an hour after a tornado warning expired, officials said they would need time to clean up the course and let it drain. The final round was to resume at 10 a.m. Monday. (Photo: Phelan M. Ebenhack/The Associated Press)
BACK TO SCHOOL: The Blue Jays kicked off their spring training camp on Tuesday. And they are feeling pretty confident, especially Jose Bautista.
In Bautista’s words: “All the bodies are here now. It’s all on us now to perform.”
The Jays outfielder says if all goes well, the season should take care of itself. Toronto should be in the playoffs, and hopefully, the World Series.

Louisville safety Calvin Pryor predicted the Cardinals would “shock the world” against Florida in the Sugar Bowl.
Brave words that he and his teammates backed up from start to finish.
Terell Floyd returned an interception 38 yards for a touchdown on the first play, dual-threat quarterback Teddy Bridgewater directed a handful of scoring drives and No. 22 Louisville stunned the fourth-ranked Gators 33-23 in the Sugar Bowl on Wednesday night.
Shaking off an early hit that flattened him and knocked off his helmet, Bridgewater was 20 of 32 passing for 266 yards and two touchdowns against the heavily favoured Gators. Among his throws was a pinpoint, 15-yard timing toss that DeVante Parker acrobatically grabbed as he touched one foot down in the corner of the end zone.

Top-ranked Novak Djokovic won his third Sony Ericsson Open title Sunday, holding every service game to beat Andy Murray 6-1, 7-6 (4).
The lone break point Djokovic faced came in the fifth game, and he erased that. In the tiebreaker he lost only one service point, went ahead to stay when Murray double-faulted to make it 3-2, and closed out the victory when the Scotsman sailed his final forehand long.
