Hi all, Firstly - I'm not actually advocating this as a sensible thing, but wonder what I'm missing (apart from maybe common sense). Law 9.1.8 the flight of the shuttle shall be upwards from the server’s racket to pass over the net so that, if not intercepted, it shall land in the receiver’s service court (i. e. on or within the boundary lines); Law 13.1 (It shall be a fault...) if a service is not correct (Law 9.1); Given that other service faults (e.g. Height/Foot Fault/etc) are granted independent of whether or not the receiver hits the shuttle - does this mean that if the receiver hit a serve that was going short that should also be called a service fault. As I said at the top - common sense would say otherwise - but being pedantic it reads as it would be the case
Indeed, the wording is a little bit inaccurate (we don't call faults, but in or out). But your interpretation is not correct: If the shuttle is intercepted, the following clause does not apply.
Thank you. That makes sense. I knew I had to be missing something! Sent from my MotoG3 using Tapatalk
