While recently participating in the USTA district tournament there was an interesting moment during my second match at number 2 doubles. After having won the first set 7-5, we were down 3-1 in the second set when one of our opponents cramped up and fell while trying to get to a drop shot. Now interestingly enough, after about a ten minute interruption in play, my partner says to me “you know we can’t pick on that guy now.” Well I instantly said, are you kidding me? Having played competitive sports all of my life, I felt that the only thing to do was to keep going at this guy. Well after play resumed, his first serve came to me and I simply hit a drop shot as a return. Now my question to you is this, do you think it’s part of the game to pick on an injured player or was I out of line? I personally think that if that if you choose to play then all is fair! I’m curious as to what you would have done!
