Double bounce on racket

Rules

When I receive a backspin serve at an awkward angle, the ball sometimes bounces twice on my racket. It's an extremely rare occurence but it does happen. Would this be considered a foul?

Hi Jack,

This is a good shot.  You are now allowed to hit the ball twice as long as it is not intentional.
