In “Angry Players Are Seeing Holes in the Electronic Judging System ”, Christopher Clarey point out that we use Halk-eye to judge about ball ,but we use human to judge foot fault.Arlen Kantarian,the former United States Tennis Association executive, give reason about that is that we can not see a ball that speed may be 130-mile-per-hour clearly ,but foot is high speed like that so that line judges could pick those up. In last two years, it have two famouse tennis player, Serena Williams and Andy Roddick , have problem with foot fault in their important match that can change a resule of the match ,but Paul Hawkins, one of the inventors of the Hawk-Eye system, thinks that it only two incidents over foot faults in the last two years ,so thia incident is rarely to happen and it is not a reason to chage Halk-eye to judge foot fault.
I think judge by human can be a problem in a inportant match because player will be stress in match that make judge will be stress too and will increase error in judgement and human may be have a bias in judge anything. Judge by machine may be more correct ,but I think if we use machine to judge everything in match, it will take a lot of money and it is few time that judgement will chage a result of the match. I think human judge may be classic ,but I think that loser by bad judge are not happy with this classic.

In football, we call, or just Sepp Blatter, the president of FIFA, calls, the false judgment "charming", and I agree with him. I think humans can doing errors and the error make football more interesting: Argentina, and Maradona, became FIFA World Cup champion in 1986 by the "Hand of God"; England became champion in 1966 by Sir Geoff Hurst the "Lineman Score". Many incidents from the past are continue arguing until now, and that make football more than a shooting-the-ball-into-the-goal competition.
ReplyDeleteIn tennis, I just interest in Sharapova, or something like that, so just leave right or wrong judgments out of the court, I don't care about that.
