Answers to Rules questions - Q30 |

Idea by Clive Pollard |
The question is : Q30 - After the opponent's shot, the player expects a ball to travel down the left side of the court only to find that the ball has hit the front-wall nick and is now traveling down the middle of the court. After preparing to play the ball on the backhand, the player moves the racket across the body to take the ball on the forehand, without turning and without the ball passing the player (i.e., the ball is always in front of the player). The player hits the ball which then hits the opponent while on its way to the front wall. |
