Do you often watch professional sports these days amazed at seeing 18 year olds dominating their sport against significantly older and bigger opponents? Well how would seeing a 12 year old competing against fully grown men make you feel?
Although he may not be dominating his sport quite yet, China's Ye Wocheng is a 12 year old taking the golfing world by storm. He has absolutely smashed the record for the youngest ever golfer on the Pro Tour (previously held by his fellow countryman Tianla...

Last week, we ran a competition asking you to complete the sentence 'I train because...' and the response was awesome!!
With a grand total of 478 entries, you guys have shared what motivates you to train. There was everything from "I want to survive the zombie apocalypse" to "I want a second piece of double chocolate cheesecake!" so narrowing down our 15 prize winners was pretty tough.
First place went to Andy H - look out for him sporting his new Tribesports Tshirt and lock laces!

Let me travel back in time...4 years ago...there I was, 20 years old, living a sedentary lifestyle at a whopping 230 lbs. I pushed myself into a deep depressive state, and there were some days when I didn't even want to get out of bed, nor did I feel like I had a reason for doing so.
