Sportsmanship at its absolute best.

submitted by Ickster

8 years 3 months 1 week ago

There’s a wide gulf of character in the world of sports.

Which would you like to start with: the bad or the good?

OK, you win, because American Jack Sock didn’t at last night’s Hopman Cup match in Perth, Australia.

Sock led Aussie Leighton Hewitt 5-4 in the match when he benefited from an “out” call on a serve.

“That was ‘in’ if you want to challenge it,” Sock shouted to Hewitt. The look on Hewitt’s face at the sportsmanship was stunning.

Hewitt won the match 7-5 6-4.

"Sports do not build character, Sports reveal character."

jokingly says...

I wish I had discovered Tennis when I was in school.

The actual quote is even better.

"Anybody who teaches a skill, which coaches do, is admirable. But sport doesn't build character. Character is built pretty much by the time you’re six or seven. Sports reveals character. Sports heightens your perceptions. Let that be enough." - Heywood Hale Broun

New to me is the 'fan vote' shown at the end.
So 39% percent thought Sock was lying!
