Man how about that. 75 and over! So great to see these folks out there exercising and competing! What a great time for them and congrats to these players. Would be nice to know their names from the draw! My friends grandmother competes in these and she’s 76!!
She is serving a volley (not a dropped serve) so: The server’s arm must be moving in an upward arc when the ball is struck. Paddle contact with the ball must not be made above the waist level. The head of the paddle must not be above the highest part of the wrist at contact. So, no rule on high you can toss the ball up so her serve is perfectly level.
OK...I understand. I've seen other gold medal matches where the camera angle was behind them so you could see everything better. But I didn't realize that wasn't always available. So I apologize and thank you for doing your best.@@TeamHanlonPickleball

Same question about the serve??

is that a legal serve by the lady on the far court? looks like she is tossing the ball UP.
You need to get a better angle of the game for the camera (i/e behind them...not to the side of them).
We do our best. The angles are limited. We also try to not to block the view of the crowd, so our options are even more limited.
