Legal serve
Rules
Vijay Madge Asked 12 years ago
Dear Alois, just out of curiosity. I am a right hander and if I want to do the backhand tomahawk serve a la Ding Ning can I serve with my left hand so as to send the ball exactly the way she does in her so-called 'ace'?

Hi Vijay,
You are allowed to serve with your left hand but it is probably better if you serve the normal Tomahawk serve with your right hand, you will get the ball swinging the same way.

That satisfies my curiosity. I will try both the options in Ding Ning style and let you know the result. Thanks.
