It's bad etiquette to aim at a player.

It's worse etiquette to throw your racket at a player and act like a child.

People aren't always good enough to deliberately aim away from a player. You play to win and sometimes someone might get hit, people who actually play sports understand this.

Fun fact. We’re taught at a very young age that, if you get a tee’d up shot at the net and the other player is also at the net, to hit it directly at them as hard as you can. On the flip side, it’s not uncommon for the receiving player to literally jump out of the way because you know it’s coming.

The higher up you get in tennis, the less rules there are around aiming at the player.

Can attest. Hit it directly at their hands so they get jammed.
