G.O.A.T.
This was from another thread where 2 people questioned whether I should have won the point or not. Lou hits a short shot that barely goes over the net. I rush to it and zip the ball past him. Lou claims my racquet can not go over the net, but I say it's legal because I never touched the net at all. My followthrough went over the net which is perfectly legal. The ball obviously wasn't plucked out of the air on his side because it had already bounced. The ball had a vertical bounce meaning it wasn't about to spin back over but it was close enough to net that my followthrough would go over. Where in the rules does it say that a followthrough can not go over the net? I would have certainly given him the point if I touched the net, but no part of my racquet or body touched the net. I don't see the problem, the point was mine or is there some strange rule that would have given Lou the cheat the point?
