Ok Hawk-Eye has completely changed tennis in the last year. In some tournaments players have 3 appeals which means they can appeal against a decision that has gone against them. If they get there appeal correct they keep there appeal and if there appeal is wrong they lose an appeal. simple. Hawk-eye allows the fans and competitors to see the flow of the ball and see where it landed. I have a clip from the Dubai quarter final match between Nadal and Youzhny. If Youzhny wins the point he gets the set, so its a crucial point.
Right, u have seen how hawk eye works. How could the human eye tell if that was in or out. thats why hawk eye has changed the face of tennis so we can have correct decisions. Personally i feel it has added tension and excitement to the game and as a viewer throughly enjoy the anticipation factor of the hawk eye.
Whats your opinion on hawk eye??? how do you feel it has changed the game?? and how has it affected you as a viewer watching the match on your television or at a live game. opinions plz!!!

Hawk Eye in Cricket
Examples of Hawk-Eye in Cricket
LBWs
Viewers now expect Hawk-Eye’s verdict on lbw ‘shouts'. This gives commentators and viewers adequate time to discuss and digest the result before the next ball has be
en bowled.
Hawk-Eye helps to resolve the following three issues:
Would the ball have hit the stumps?
Did the ball pitch in-line?
Did the ball hit the batsman in-line?

Wagon Wheels 
The singles, 2s, 3s, 4s and 6s that make up quick-fire 50s or vital centuries are represented by the different colours of the Wagon Wheel, which shows the areas of the field that the batsman has been targeting. Hawk-Eye now has the ability to display wagon wheels over photo realistic or virtual realistic backgrounds, giving broadcasters even more scope to taylor the Hawk-Eye 'look' towards the style of their production.
Pitch Maps
Simple yet effective; Pitch Maps make a useful pause for reflection after the frenetic exchanges of the opening overs and highlight a bowler’s consistency or expensiveness, line and length.
Hawk-Eye can now display comparative Pitch Maps in a split screen format, as shown in the example to the right.

Beehives 
Beehives show where the ball has passed the batsman.As with the Pitch Map, the coloured balls correspond to the number of runs that the batsman has achieved from that delivery. Hawk-Eye Beehives can now be shown against a photo realistic or virtual realistic world, as with the Wagon Wheel feature.

Ball Speeds 
Hawk-Eye now has the ability to supply ball speeds as reliably as a radar gun, as demonstrated during the ICC World Twenty20 in South Africa.
