Backspin back over the net

John Teti Asked 12 years ago

I watched a match in which a player hit the ball with backspin that the receiver did not touch but then spun back over the net after hitting the receiver's side of the table one time. Who gets the point?

Thanks,

JT

Hi JT,

That would be the players point who hit the ball with backspin.  The opponent has to touch the ball before it goes back over the net for the point to continue.
