'That was in if you want to challenge it': Jack Sock stuns Lleyton Hewitt and costs himself a point, all in the name of sportsmanship at the Hopman Cup.

One of the great things about individual sports like Tennis & Golf is that you can be honest. You can do the right thing without being stared down in the locker room by your teammates.

This brings tears to my eyes. As a coach of youth sports, I've shown this to my players (baseball and hockey). You can see the joy on the video of these two opponents on the court and clearly friends off the court. I have also advised that the dream of being a professional athlete is so extremely remote that they have a better chance of being an astronaut. Removing that pressure allows for the better enjoyment of the game. Win or lose, lessons are learned and you sweat just the same. I'm 64 and play racquetball, pickleball, volleyball and wallyball every week and after each session, I can't recall the score or even who won. But I know I had a good time and a good sweat.

@@sprolyborn2554 I truly believe that winning at all costs only makes the sport worse no matter what, therea are no ifs because once you open that pandora's box you can't close it. My favorite well known sports figures such as Federer or Pele rarely or ever resorted to cheating or disqualifying their opponents as their main philosophy, they even suffered some defeats and accepted them only to rebound and do better. Those who believe winning at all costs pays, well they can join the ranks of cyclist Lance Armstrong who won countless times but got addicted and bullied his team into "the most sophisticated, professionalized and successful doping program that sport has ever seen." Armstrong was subsequently banned from the sport. So yes better to lose a game with dignity than to win at all costs and risk being known for the rest of eternity as the dishonest winner.
