Interesting article on how tennis players view the tradition of offering an apology after a lucky net cord.
Where do you guys stand?
Personally, I think it isn't necessary to say sorry every time. If you see that the opponent had the upper hand in the rally, I guess it's only right to acknowledge your good fortune. I think the only other sport where I see such apologies is snooker.
