A serve is considered in if it touches the service box without touching anything else. A serve is also considered in if it touches the receiver, or in the case of doubles, the receivers partner before it touches the ground, regardless of where they are standing. A serve is considered a let (do over) if it touches the net and lands in the proper service box. Today’s question is what is the rule if a serve touches the net and then touches the receivers partner: A) If the receivers partner is in the service box or; B) If the receivers partner is in the court outside of the service box or; C) If the receivers partner is outside of the court. We are assuming the serve touches the partner before it touches the ground.
