    The goal for the Laureus Sport For Good Foundation is to give kids an opportunity to be involved in sports and hopefully learn some lessons along the way. We want to put them in a safe environment, help them if they need it and maybe they will get a scholarship to a school because of the skills that they learn. Sport is just a starting point.

    It actually speeds the match up, ... You do the challenge, you look at it, it takes 15 to 30 seconds and you're done with it. (Now) when you have a really big call that goes against you and you have an argument with the umpire and the linesman it takes a lot of time.
