technology and tennis

Tennis implemented an instant replay system last year. This should reduce any amount of controversy regarding calls made by officials. I know I recently watched a tennis match and they now have the capability to show a computerized video of the flight of the ball and where it exactly hit on the court. This capability has been around for a while, but has just become more affordable for tournaments to install the technology for their events. Officials have also done enough to convince the players and tournament directors that this is good for the sport. This technology allows questionable calls to be challenged and/or reviewed by the judges. I think this is something that is great for the sport of tennis and something that should be done in all sports, as it would make the games that much more fair for everyone involved. Officials are human, and make mistakes, at least now in tennis they have the capability to overcome these mistakes. The NFL, NBA and even collegiate football and basketball have some form of replay challenge system in place. Some have more possibilities than others, but I believe that this is something good for sports in general.
