Judges' Comments

This category needs more creative input from the picture editor. Most of the pages were numbingly similar. The action moments were good, but not exceptional. I chose three pages that demonstrated a more creative approach to the editing of sports pictures.

Using a brilliant portrait as simply as this cannot fail to produce a page that is as good-looking and arresting as this. A beautiful striking portrait with a very simple layout is what makes this entry stand out. For a newspaper this has a the look and feel of a well done magazine cover.

The second place front featuring the portrait of Tiger Woods made a newspaper sports front look like a magazine cover… a change-up if you will… which works in baseball and newspapering.
