Kantowksi: Prep stars who made SI cover
Las Vegas baseball sensation Bryce Harper isn't the first high school athlete to grace the cover of Sports Illustrated -- just the first since LeBron James. When crown prince James was featured in 2002, ESPN.com put together a list of the 10 prep athletes who'd been on the SI cover since 1966. Here's how they've fared:
Jenkins: Is Federer greatest ever?
As he stood alongside Roger Federer for a post-match interview at the French Open Sunday, John McEnroe wore a look of reverence. It's a look we've seen in recent years from Rod Laver, Bjorn Bjorg and Pete Sampras, as well as Andre Agassi during Sunday's trophy ceremony.
Marvez: The 'Golden Greek' -- an appreciation
Pro wrestling is a little less golden with the passing of the "Golden Greek."

Tebbutt: Federer wins game of inches
The destiny of an athlete sometimes hinges on very little, and Monday it was just a couple of inches on a critical shot by Roger Federer that kept him from exiting the 2009 French Open -- just as Rafael Nadal and Novak Djokovic had done on the two previous days.
Tebbutt: Sharapova shoulders load
The fortunes of women's tennis ride on the rather broad shoulders of Maria Sharapova, in particular on the right one, which was surgically repaired last October.
The stately Russian played her first Grand Slam tournament since Wimbledon in June of 2008, advancing to the second round of the French Open Monday with a 3-6, 6-1, 6-2 victory over Anastasiya Yakimova of Belarus.
Marvez: Daniels feels like a new man wrestling under his old name
Christopher Daniels is happy to be himself again.
After spending 16 months performing as two different masked characters, Daniels is back grappling under his own name in TNA Wrestling.
Blount: Jackson gives racing new star Rachel Alexandra
Jess Jackson is not afraid to lose to a girl. He's been there before, when his horse Curlin was defeated by the filly Rags to Riches in the 2007 Belmont Stakes.
Donaldson: Filly Rachel Alexandra stirs up Preakness
Saturday's 134th Preakness Stakes has suddenly turned into more of a soap opera than a horse race.
The second leg of the Triple Crown in Baltimore should be renamed the "As The Horse Racing World Turns" Stakes.
