This is an eclectic compendium of the essays solicited for the 2010
Mathematics Awareness Month Web page on the theme of 'Mathematics
and Sports'. In keeping with the goal of promoting mathematics
awareness to a broad audience, all of the articles are accessible
to university-level mathematics students and many are accessible to
the general public. The book is divided into sections by the kind
of sports. The section on American football includes an article
that evaluates a method for reducing the advantage of the winner to
a coin flip in an NFL overtime game; the section on track and field
examines the ultimate limit on how fast a human can run 100 metres;
the section on baseball includes an article on the likelihood of
streaks; the section on golf has an article that describes the
double-pendulum model of a golf swing and an article on modelling
Tiger Woods' career.
