I would go with Luis. All of the others have little information to draw what kind of person they are from. Hope this helps!

Answer: The correct answer is Peter.

Step-by-step explanation:

You are looking for a tennis partner, who needs to show a good sportsmanship. This basically means having a respectful attitude in the sport event. He has to show respect to teammates, opponents, authorities as well as spectators. He has to be able to face lost matches with graciousness, not blaming others for the lossand to show self-control when winning, without showing off. He needs to have integrity and support fai play.

* Luis can be a rule follower around school but we don't know how he behaves in a competiton with a partner.

* Devon can be the best server but we don't know how he behaves in a team or how he behaves in a tennis match.

* Adam is strongly competitive with a strong desire to win. It is probable he won't show the attitude described above for a good sportsmanship. He will only focus on winning the match.

*Peter has experience in being on a team in a previous championship. He probably knows how to respect his teammates and how to be part of a team.
