A trend in sports equipment has been to improve the players

A trend in sports equipment has been to improve the players\' performance by introducing new products. Examples are the graphite-composite shall and titanium head in golf drivers, lighter-weight composite tennis rackets with a larger \"sweet\" spot, and an aluminum baseball bat with built-in damping. Discuss the ethics of compensating for personal inadequacies in performance with technology in competitive sports.

Solution

If player is incompetent, increasing his/her capability by technolgy advancement is not ethical.

Player with poor monetary status cannot afford these advanced equipment and tend to lag behind even if they have more talent .

So in entical terms this in not good in favour of a sport.
