Knotty Problem~
Player A is about to hit a ball coming toward him. His opponent, Player B, sees a ball rolling in front of Player A and calls a let before Player A hits the ball.
What happens?
1) Player A hits a winner and wins the point despite the let call.
2) Player A wins the point because Player B called a let on his side of the net.
3) The point is replayed.
Three keys to this situation are:
1) Player B called the let before Player A hit the ball. If Player B waits to see what Player A is going to hit before he calls a let, he is giving himself two chances to win the point.
2) Player B was genuinely concerned about the safety of Player A and stopped the point.
3) Player B may call a let on the other side of the net if the let was not caused by Player B.
The point is replayed. Player B was acting out of sportsmanship and a concern for safety when he called the let. Player B was following “The Code” of tennis.
