Rule of the Week Question
In doubles, can the server stand in the behind the baseline in the doubles
alley to serve? What are the rules?
Answer
The short answer is yes. The long answer is to be found in the USTA rulebook,
which says, "the server has the right in doubles to stand anywhere
back of the baseline between the center mark imaginary extension and the
doubles sideline imaginary extension."
