The swing is different, and so, too, is the man. Tiger Woods couldn’t help but change in the 10 years since he blew everyone away at Pebble Beach, sex scandal or not.

DOMINATING PERFORMANCE —This June 18, 2000, file photo shows Tiger Woods with the winner’s trophy after capturing the 100th U.S. Open Golf Championship at the Pebble Beach Golf Links in Pebble Beach, Calif.

He was 24 then, a talent so prodigious that his fellow pros had to fight the urge not to bow before him whenever graced by his presence. He won the U.S. Open by an astonishing 15 shots, and the talk in the locker room wasn’t who would challenge him on the course, but who would be lucky enough to finish second the next time he teed it up.

Woods would go on to win the British Open, the PGA Championship, and then the Masters the next year. He held all four major championships at once, a feat so difficult that even the great Jack Nicklaus couldn’t do it.

LOS ANGELES (AP)—He was a coach when coaching meant something else, long before the job became a pathway to riches and fame. A coach when student-athletes were really students, and the thought of making millions of dollars rolling out basketballs in the gym seemed preposterous. A coach when it meant more to mold the lives of young men than to proclaim his own greatness.

“Learn as if you were going to live forever,” he would tell his players. “Live as if you were going to die tomorrow.”

WIZARD OF WESTWOOD—In this March 24, 1969 photo, legendary UCLA coach John Wooden is flanked by Sidney Wicks, right, and Lew Alcindor, draped with basket ropes, after UCLA beat Purdue 92-72 to win the NCAA basketball title for the third consecutive year, in Louisville, Ky. Wooden, who built one of the greatest dynasties in all of sports at UCLA and became one of the most revered coaches ever, died June 4. He was 99.

William Harrison can tell you horrific stories of his time as a 911 dispatcher. He can also take you on a journey through his rich family history, most notably holding the distinction of the most degrees from the University of Pittsburgh of any African-American family.

But perhaps what he’s most proud of, is being a part of the elite 13, a group of runners who have been through every Pittsburgh Marathon, including the first two Great Races.

This year’s race marked Harrison’s 21st marathon. What makes him different from probably most of the others is that he doesn’t train between marathons. In fact, he can’t train.

SCENIC ROUTE—Every year, William Harrison joins thousands of others in the Pittsburgh Marathon.

Detroit Tigers pitcher Armando Galarraga pitched a perfect game with imperfect results.

Shortly after the game in which he beat the Cleveland Indians 3-0 on a “1 hitter,” MLB declined to comment on first base umpire Jim Joyce botching the call that took a no-run, no-hit perfect game from Galarraga. Commissioner Bud Selig has apparently decided to do nothing about it. Why? Well, I’m guessing to preserve the psuedo-purity or the economic sanctity of the game.
