Story★★★★The next day the tournament committee came to a surprising solution. Refusing to condone Nastase’s bullying tactics, they insisted that Nastase default the match for his unsportsman-like conduct. Arthur Ashe won both in the game of tennis-and in the game of life.
The point
Arthur Ashe won a tennis match by default when his opponent was disqualified for unsportsmanlike conduct, illustrating that character and integrity matter more than winning.
