Question

After the second service, the ball falls in the box exactly opposite the place of the server and not in the diagonally opposite box. What will be the decision of the umpire?

Answer 1

The serve is a fault the server must send the ball into the diagonally opposite service court, so a serve that lands in the non‑diagonal box is not legal.

Because this was the server’s second serve, that fault is a double‑fault and the receiver is awarded the point.
