1. Kim Clijsters. Greatest Comeback Ever? Quite possibly. Her US Open win certainly ranks up there with the famous comebacks by Michael Jordan, Lance Armstrong and George Foreman. Congratulations Kim, we reckon that’s a guaranteed Laureus nomination*.
2. Not for the first time, Roger Federer does something pretty special. He called it the “greatest shot I ever hit in my life”. Who are we to argue?
3. Congratulations to Germany for beating England in the Women’s European Cup Final. German’s convincing 6-2 win included an incredible 40-yard goal from Melanie Behringer (at 4:04 below)
4. We’ve grown to take Tiger Woods victories for granted over the years but a course record and an 8-shot victory over a field that contains names like Mickelson, Furyk, Harrington and Garcia should not be underestimated. The big man seems to be back.
5. More fun from the US Open featuring Laureus World Sports Academy member, John McEnroe.
*before you accuse us of fixing nominations, we have no control over them – we leave that to the experts!

Brett Lee’s bowling on Saturday should be in here. Incredible yorker bowling and only the 2nd bowler ever to hit the stumps four times against England at Lord’s.
