That comment is just plain foolish.
Once (btw) is enough.
If you played tennis (well), by the way, you would know differently. The only thing a player receiving serve (not expecting a serve like that) could do with it would be to rush forward and try to return it by lifting it over the net.
Get real ................ or go to a badminton thread.
btw.... badminton is a great game too.

Many years ago, I played a sport called "Arial Tennis" or "Arial Darts." Sort of like badmiton, but instead of rackets, we used wooden paddles, the courts were larger, and the bird had a heavy, hard rubber "head" which mean that it could MOVE!

Wow... I think that it's probably been at least 25 years since I last played that game...

Let me know when you pick up that A-list pro player coaching gig.
I used to play a game called Minton. But I wasn't very good.
I played Bad Minton (badaboom).
